I think it's a kinda an attitude issue: you see all macros as enemies. I see 
some of them as friends. Macros in general (and FOREACH in particular) are 
in most cases only usability helpers (there is also configuration switched 
domain, but it's beside the point). And until language provide as-convenient 
alternatives I am ready to accept the macro nature of these tools.
