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.
