Yes, let's have some balance. 30 years of looking at forth code including that of vendors and Bradley's definition looks very typical to me. SwiftForth's code is no different. Whammo had no basis for factoring. He factored until there was nothing left - exactly what Wong said shouldn't be done. Six of his seven new words are used only once. Moore has something to say about that: "Any time a word is used only once you want to question its value."
