Yes, I saw those, and for once, I did not agree.
I like extensions that we cannot do ourselves, like RTNYES/NO and the unlimited stack, the local variables..
With those, you can implement most of Valentin's suggestions very easily, and have them behave like built-in functions.
I can understand that, with the limited memory and speed of the 41 (and even the 42S) , his suggestions would have been welcome.. but in Free42, and to some lesser extent, the DM42, there is no need to have everything and the kitchen sink installed - a large part of the fun is to create them yourself?
My 2 cents..
