    I wouldn’t consider Melody a new flavour of regex as it compiles to ECMAScript regular expressions.

    I’d consider being more verbose than regular expressions as a great thing for what this project aims to do, regular expressions are very write optimized which is the wrong (IMO) tradeoff to make in a shared codebase (or even your personal code that’s more than a few days old) where code is read much more often.
