Exactly! Perl abbreviates and defaults so much that it's very difficult to follow what it's doing.
I love the perl motto:
There's More Than One Way To Do It
which, in my experience, should be:
There's More Than One Way To Do It But There's Only One Sensible Way. Unfortunately You Won't Know Which One That Is Until You're Wayyyyy. Down The Line ...
Yes, quite, I'd much prefer there to be just one way to do 'it' and that way should be explicit rather than implicit.
