I'm well aware of the problem. The problem "Pike is confusing for beginners" and "Pike is confusing for C programmers" are two different ones. I think it is enough to make Pike look like a consistent and thought through language on its own. Changes to make it more easy to go from X#++ to Pike has to have much more persuading arguments.

You have probably not been writing enough C to see the problem clearly. :-)
size() and/or len() would be better.
