in thread What is Perl6?

This is something I don't have to do with Perl 5. [...] I understand the difference between the three now, but I don't necessarily appreciate them

Yes, and this caused you to be stuck with using one implementation. With Perl6, you are not locked with one vendor. For example, you could use another implementation such as pugs instead of rakudo. (Although I believe the development of pugs has stalled.)
