From its very beginning, Forth has never had much success at "me too"
programming. Its successes have mainly been in places where other
techniques have either failed or not even been tried.
So you want to do something cool in Forth? Find something that's never
been done on a computer. Forth is not a good tool for reinventing the
wheel.

History teaches that logical consistency is neither sufficient nor
necessary to establish practical, real world truth. Those who attempt to
use logic for that purpose are abusing it.
