+- floating point math is supported on certain targets
+- access to most Kernal ROM routines as external subroutine definitions you can call normally
+- tight control over Zeropage usage
+- programs can be run multiple times without reloading because of automatic variable (re)initializations.
+- programs can be configured to execute in ROM
 - strings can contain escaped characters but also many symbols directly if they have a petscii equivalent, such as "♠♥♣♦π▚●○╳". Characters like ^, _, \, {, } and | are also accepted and converted to the closest petscii equivalents.
 - automatic static variable allocations, automatic string and array variables and string sharing
-- subroutines with input parameters and result values
 - high-level program optimizations
-- no need for forward declarations
+- conditional branches that map 1:1 to cpu status flags
-- small program boilerplate/compilersupport overhead
-- programs can be run multiple times without reloading because of automatic variable (re)initializations.
-- conditional branches
 - ``when`` statement to provide a concise jump table alternative to if/elseif chains
+- ``on .. goto`` statement for fast jump tables
 - ``in`` expression for concise and efficient multi-value/containment check 
+- ``defer`` statement to help write concise and robust subroutine cleanup logic
 - several specialized built-in functions such as ``lsb``, ``msb``, ``min``, ``max``, ``rol``, ``ror``
 - various powerful built-in libraries to do I/O, number conversions, graphics and more  
-- convenience abstractions for low level aspects such as ZeroPage handling, program startup, explicit memory addresses
+- subroutines can return more than one result value
 - inline assembly allows you to have full control when every cycle or byte matters
