#perl6 — Public Fediverse posts

I installed #emacs31 on my #slackware system using slackbuilds. All went well,

But, I get an err prompt about lexical-binding. I searched & found you need to add this as the very first line of affected el files:
;; -*- lexical-binding: nil -*-

Emacs 31.1 works great, but I think doing this will push people learning #emacs away from #emacs.

Why couldn't #emacs pretend the el file had that line if missing ? I fear this and planned future changes may mirror #perl5 -> #perl6 move :(
