The adding of DIM keyword in mean, stddev, etc... old functions is a
big improvement, awaited for a long time.
The !null object added since 8.0 does not break any compatibility. You
still can test the returned number of elements, as before. But in case
of void return, your subsequent program will not be stopped by an
addressing error, allowing much lighter coding !
