I'm all for inventing radical new programming paradigms, and maybe Open
Language may help with some of this, but what you have there is a common
need addressed through a different pattern:
In essence it's a name-value pair, and whenever you have a set of
name-value pair in which the names can't be known in advance one of the
most common solutions is an associative array, which LC handles well:
put 1 into tArray[x]
