Pretty much. I think "just" is oversimplifying a bit of how powerful they can be, but yes all the reporter blocks are shape generic, and we're exploring whether other tools can be as well. Could we build a really intuitive version of np.vectorize? Maybe. :)
In the File menu inside Snap!, click on libraries and on that list there's an entire APL library that expands upon these ideas. I am no APL expert; this is something really designed more about pushing the limits than something we're actively trying to teach, but there's definitely useful tools in there.
I was lucky enough to meet Ken Iverson and Adin Falkoff at age 14 and have been an APL fan ever since, so the APL library has been a labor of love for me! It still needs a lot of work but it's getting the ideas out there.
