I personally loathe fi'u, because it's in PA instead of VUhU, which
makes things not work as you'd expect at *all*. For example, (1+2)
over (2+3) can't be done using fi'u:
Fi'u is meant to be used to make simple fractions, not for generalized
division. It's so you can say things like three-and-a-half without
worrying about operator priority.
So is there any cmavo for generalized division which could be used to express
(1+2) over (2+3)?
If not, then MEX has another point against it (although I'm not keeping
score).
