Yeah, I was also going to say that conflating trivial syntax and "supremely easy to learn" is a very weak flex.

The first Smalltalk-80 book you randomly find is 560 pages.

Also, there is a weird bargaining with "but not block temporaries" and "not an instance variable". Why not? Half of the postcard is basically empty. Also, "except primitives" — how many primitives are there?
