Wouldn't it be more intuitive if $ returned a scheme function and applied it to the arguments?

  ($ asin x)

To get that, you can write

  ($.asin x)
; in fact, that's often what I do. But being able to write snippets of Scheme can be important, if you need to work with things (for instance, datatypes like the boolean) which don't exist in Arc.
