Thinking more about the "auto eval definitions" approach, I think it breaks down when debugging. If I want to step through the existing definition, it'd be really awkward to re-evaluate the definition at my cursor.

I'm not sure how I feel about languages with auto currying. Upside: Partial application is easy. Downside: It's common to miss a parameter when refactoring, and errors can be unclear. Upside: You can be generic on functions: a -> b. Downside: An a -> b isn't very useful.

I've written a manual for Difftastic with mdbook! https://difftastic.wilfred.me.uk/ mdbook makes it super easy: it auto-creates stub files, and reloads your browser as you write. It's a really nice workflow.
