Things like this is just because people are trying to be lazy, not 
because this does improve code (human readable or otherwise).
Someone who is trying to use a construct like the one mentioned above is 
nothing but lazy, is not properly designing his/her software. And that 
is against what Pascal should stand for.
Humans miss a lot of times a third hand, but this isn't likely to happen 
that we grow one anytime soon. So get used to properly using what you 
have...
