That is totally irrelevant for this discussion. There are other
scripting languages that can be used, Script-Fu is just one of them. It
addresses the needs of people who like those strings of parentheses. If
you prefer BASIC, feel free to add a GIMP extension that allows to write
scripts in BASIC. It's really pretty simple to wrap the PDB to whatever
scripting language you like.
