Macros can be useful but I feel like we should ban certain people from touching them.
For example, imagine if someone were to use the C preprocessor to create an elaborate object orientation system for C, calling it GObject, and then create an entire graphics stack up to and including a desktop environment, called, say, GNOME.
I think that's the kind of person who should no longer be allowed to use the C preprocessor.
@jordyd What then about the people who said "wow, this is a mess! Better wrap it in a new language 'Vala' so we can use that hard work without dealing with the macros."
