Yes, it would. But until there was RakuAST, that was virtually impossible to do because there was no proper API for building ASTs. Nor was there an interface to execute those ASTs. And now that there is RakuAST, it is actually possible to do this. And there is actually already an implementation of that idea in the new Formatter class. Although this is definitely not intended as an entry point into grokking RakuAST.
Originally, I thought I'd name this series of blog posts "RakuAST for Beginners". But since documentation on RakuAST is pretty non-existent at this stage, I felt I would be doing people a service by making clear that they will be at the very front of development in the Raku Programming Language if they start dabbling in RakuAST.
