A different way to say the same: in forth, words get pushed on the stack, and popped from the stack by words that take arguments:

    code           stack
    I Forth love

    Forth love     I

    love           I
                   Forth

    ; love presumably pops
    ; subject, object args
    ; from stack - and does something 
    ; perhaps prints as side effect

Is that loss?

No.

Here is some inexplicably but meticulously formatted FORTH code that uses right justified indentation! Including reverse polish notation assembley.
