If you ask for less in the CORE wordset, I may agree with you. But when you
come saying that we shouldn't put CATCH&THROW (for example) in the standard
because it's not in commom practice, I have to reply that we have to put (becaus
   e
many of us need and none of us can implement it from CORE ou EXT CORE) BEFORE
we have LOTS OF DIFFERENT COMMOM PRACTICE.

If you want a small Forth, just forget all the extensions. Or try to explain me
why you can't do that!
