I would just like to point something out regarding this sentence in
the RFC on the "Variable pinning" section:
> This particular syntax was chosen as it is the same as in Ruby, the only other language we know

I don't know how helpful this info is, but I'll provide it anyway.
Elixir and Erlang also have the functionality and its syntax is the
same, using the ^ character.
