imo a better way to start addressing that issue is to replace tests
which are worse than matrix - such as hash.
Doug Bagley thought it was a bad test, and everyone since has agreed.
Can we devise a replacement 'lookup' test which allows acceptable
solutions in both functional and imperative languages?

Unless we really want IO to be a big part of the test
shouldn't we avoid having any IO in a test?
