> The most horrific thing I discovered about tcl is that curly braces within comments can affect flow control.

This is not true. Once Tcl sees a valid comment, the rest of the line up to the newline is treated as a comment. An odd number of trailing backslashes suppress the newline for interpretation purposes. Within the comment you can use braces or whatever without affecting control flow.
