This may be viable when working with scripts (it is still ugly, and the history in the REPL becomes a useless mess), but it’s definitely not an option while developing modules. I’m mostly concerned with that. I find that working on modules is very tiresome because of the constant restartings required. And testing incurs the loading penalty every time too. To be completely honest, my workflow seems to me slower than with a compiled language such as Rust.
