There's still the "cultural value" of such sigils, which eases the
communication between humans. That'll depend on what other Schemes
do, and how current pedagogical literature is set up. Readability
and all that. Cultures are bound to change, though.

Of course, really marking things as immutable (the "technical" bit)
is still very cool.
