Above this well-discussed inconvenience there is a thing which may hurt
more. It's the Lua's stack-based C API and all the stack composition
pottering it imposes on you. This may be customary for those having an
experience with concatenative languages, but it'll be a source of errors
for the others. See [1]'s "Stack based API is harder" for more on it.
