Perhaps. But it's inconsistent and confusing. Two attributes which a 
language thriving to do more with less should avoid at all cost.
In my personal opinion, Lua core should work in terms of only one 
construct, namely the all encompassing table with it associated dot 
notation.
While the colon might be handy if you favor one programming style 
versus another, it's mostly syntactical fat as you can achieve the 
exact same effect using plain tables.
Plus, excess of sugar is bad for your health and make your teeth rot.
Those are just my opinions :)
