  It is very necessary. Without it, something like this will not work:

#declare Val = GimmeTheMinimumOf(Var1, Var2) + 5;

main(i,_){for(_?--i,main(i+2,"FhhQHFIJD|FQTITFN]zRFHhhTBFHhhTBFysdB"[i]

Oh, I've often thought the best jokes are served with a dry serious tone; they
are ruined by someone who already thinks it's funny and has an overly goofy
grin.
