Raku, meanwhile, gets to start again and imagine a whole new world. It has a downside that it doesn't get to start off from something that already has practical utility, but by the same reasoning it isn't beholden to compatibility with what came before. It can break old patterns, old ideas, if they are found to be outdated.

In the end, each half of the process finds its own way forward and yet the other half can benefit from it too. Each can (and should) lift its head from time to time and observe where the other half has got to, and think about whether that looks like a good direction to be going in. This combination is a very powerful one. I think it should be used more across the technology design space.
