It will not replace Frink as my desktop calculator/programming environment for "low-code" stuff especially since no other PL/utility handles unit conversions so effortlessly. I do like the command line/REPL example though. Python units libs, and other PL unit libs take too much typing. I've even made graphic apps with calcs and units for certain jobs. If this Power FX had a well-integrated units library and use, I would consider it.
