      1. i have a prototype of a feature of jn that i am pretty sure is a terrible idea. names in the .NET framework are CamelCased but names in lisp are kebab-cased. idea is: you can opt into automatic conversion on a per-namspace bases and treat .NET like a giant lisp library! thoughts?
        oh my god twitter doesn’t include alt text from images in their API

      cons: - added complexity for no real gain. .NET names are perfectly usable as is - extra magic to keep in your head - docs/errors will use real .NET names and not lispy names - makes different names mean the same thing e.g. DateTime and date-time

    pros: - it looks really nice!!! - avoids clashing naming conventions in a single file - its opt in and localized, so it shouldnt take you by surprise and you can ignore it if you like
