The mojo faq talks about the language as if it's a strict superset (or aiming to be) of Python. Or that mojo "is" Python.

Yet the roadmap says:

> As Mojo matures through phase 3, we believe Mojo will become increasingly compatible with Python code and deeply familiar to Python users, except more efficient, powerful, coherent, and safe. Mojo may or may not evolve into a full superset of Python, and it's okay if it doesn't.

This is incredibly confusing. If it's _not_ aiming for Python compatibility, why are we talking about Python at all?

Also, is anyone actually considering using an emoji as a file extension?
