2.2 Text-based syntax in Scratch
Some users wish to code Scratch not with the blocks, but with typing code instead (similar to how more advanced programming languages work). Others are interested in an option to view, convert, or download Scratch code to other programming languages. However, the Scratch Team has discussed this possibility multiple times and has decided every time that it would not be beneficial for beginners or teachers.

This suggestion extends to coding, viewing, converting, or downloading Scratch in any text-based language, including BBCode, Javascript, some form of pseudocode, or some other programming language. If you wish to code using another language, then you can learn it on your own, but it would have to be done outside of Scratch. For those who are interested, it may be worth checking out Tosh. It is a text-based programming language that serves as a text editor for Scratch projects.
The reasons I said OLRS is because The and of are commonly forgotten in abbrev.

Reading is fundamental. This suggestion doesn't include anything pertaining to text based syntax in Scratch.

Plus you can't code something with specific logic unless there is a premade block for it, so you can't get far with scratch.

If scratch could be used for real programming, coding would be much more accessible and much much faster.
Not really. At that point it wouldn't really be scratch anymore. Also, block-based programming is really slow.

How would it not be scratch anymore. Also, in most languages typing things like if statements takes longer than simply dragging a block , plus scratch is much easier to learn.
And there's the deleting code.

Make scratch a legitimate programming language

Python is an illegitimate coding language, because its int type is not an actual integer type, and neither is the float type an actual floating point. If they were, they would be fixed size and be able to be made arrays of and pointed to.

To make Scratch legitimate, it should have integer arithmetic.
