>macros, which you really shouldn't make much use of in the more modern understanding

Well, only if you're stuck with a broken macro system (cough cough Common Lisp cough cough). Here in scheme, we have er-macros and sc-macros, as well as syntax-rules. Hygene matters, and procedural macros rock, although you want declarative for the simple things. pg really made the wrong call on that, and it will probably haunt arc for years to come.
