``` Same as issue 19.

If 3n means 3*n, what are we going to do with n3? Is it n*3 or is it a variable named n3? If we do the former, variables can't contain numbers anymore (which is a severe limitation and backward incompatible). If we the latter, things don't get quite consistent and would lead to confusion. ```

``` I agree with you for issue 19. Regarding this one I still haven't rejected it totally, but agree that it will probably lead to some confusion. Let's just keep * operators mandatory in all cases then. Invalidating issue. ```
