Where does this self-limiting backwardness come from?

Virtually all modern embedded devices communicate with
their outside world, and multitasking comes naturally.
On the software side, closures can be a very helpful
tool for communication and task management.

So virtually all modern programming languages support
closures (albeit with subtle nuances). I think a modern
Forth should not be closed to modern programming concepts.
DOS is finally history.
