Forth-94 section A.1.2 indicates the X3J14 Technical Committee were guided by
several considerations including:

 "Cost of compliance
  This goal includes such issues as common practice, how much existing code
  would be broken by the proposed change, and the amount of effort required to
  bring existing applications and systems into conformity with the Standard.

  Utility
  Be judged to have sufficiently essential functionality and frequency of use
  to be deemed suitable for inclusion."

As 200x has since sought fit to require:

- a separate fp stack
- quote-delimited character interpretation ('A')
- S" support two interpretive buffers

nobody that has complied should be worried about excluding systems that use a
state-smart S" .
