Am I the only one who read the title and was immediately reminded of http://lambda-the-ultimate.org/?

(Is the title a deliberate call to that site, or something even older?)

The common parent is "Lambda: The Ultimate Imperative" (1976) https://dspace.mit.edu/bitstream/handle/1721.1/5790/AIM-353....

[SatvikBeri]

And more generally, the Lambda Papers by Guy Steele and Gerald Sussman, which also include "Lambda: The Ultimate Declarative", "Lambda: The Ultimate GOTO", and "Lambda: The Ultimate Opcode".

And it's being discussed there (... shallowly, so far) as well :D
