You're making this about the specifics about just an example. That's
not the issue.
The thing is that from a print you can easily turn it into a function
that does println. That's function declaration and one or two lines.
In openscad, if the language provides a "for" that results in several
objects, you can easily make it into a for that returns the union
between those objects: union () for (...) ... But the other way is
tricky. So IMHO it would've been nicer to have chosen the "for returns
multiple objects" behaviour.

f equals m times a. When your f is steady, and your m is going down
your a is going up. -- Chris Hadfield about flying up the space shuttle.
