Sorry, I really don't like this. It takes away my
underlying mental model of how things should work.
What happens for "10_ 20_ + ." ?

By "mental model" presumably you mean cultural conditioning?  Since
as far as I'm aware nobody is born with it.  While some fret over
1. F.  I can't say it's been an issue since leaving Microsoft BASIC
in the 1980's.  Perhaps my missing the whole C thing had something
to do with it - in which case I'm grateful.  The endless comparison
of Forth with other languages only serves to belittle it.
