Is there a proper term for "anonymous definitions"?
This is a style of programming where you avoid repeating the declaration name, so later renaming is trivial.
E.g. Rust's self type, or loop-recur in Clojure.

Should lint suppressions be first class syntax or comments?
Adding a proper metadata system (e.g. Clojure or Rust) is a big design space but it's clear which expressions are affected.
Comments are much easier to implement but it's easy for users to get them wrong.
Thoughts?

I've released difftastic 0.65! Highlights of this release:

* Quality of life improvements for binary files.
tap> is an elegant Clojure debugging feature: it passes the argument to any functions registered with add-tap.
You might set up a custom printer for your data type, or save values for later examination, and you can easily disable the tap too.
