I'm not certain whether it does create conflicts or not in general, but I think this particular example is flawed: ⍺ (f g h) ⍵ could be anything depending on what name classes those symbols have (particularly if g were an operator). When f, g, and h are all functions, then it's not a vector, but a syntax error. No conflict here. -k
