I recommend reading jvvg's essay about the scratch team before complaining, as it may change your opinion and provide insight on the topic.
coming soon :)

There is definitely a feature on Scratch where if you don't follow me, a penguin will come to your house and eat all your food and blow up your fridge.

This definitely can help for beginners who are new to Scratch.
The easiest way to do a workaround is to multiply a number by the same number.
set [output v] to ((3) * (3)) // Output: 9
set [output v] to ((3) * ((3) * (3))) // Output: 27
set [output v] to ((3) * ((3) * ((3) * (3)))) // Output: 81

It already exists as what about square roots?
([sqrt v] of (. . .)). By the way, if you want a root block when this suggestion gets implemented, do
(. . .)^((1)/(. . .))::operators reporter

Oh wait if you could time travel I think we all know exactly when you would go-

user2: But this is medians we're talking about, so “from 2.0” can mean the same thing as “from five seconds ago”.

((1) / (insert multiplication operators seen above here))But for how much effort it is, and the fact that fractional/non-integer powers simply do not work (with exception of x^1/2) with current blocks, including workarounds, that alone is enough to support.
