And here is one idea just for fun. I thought I'll tackle this but I don't have time to learn python.

Take words and see them all. Produce dot file and make callgraph or wordgraph.
Anyway to see what gets used where and in which order.

#dot-tree for all and #dot-word for one word. 

It might be also useful for optimizing stuff.
: bar blob urf xyz ;
: baz asd = if blob then urf ;

The diagram will show that you need refactoring.

This is hand written to get a idea.

digraph foo{
  node [shape = record];
  bar [label="bar|<f0> blob|<f1> urf|<f2> xyz"];
  baz [label="baz|<f0>asd|<f1> if|<f2> blob|<f3> then|<f4> urf"];
  blob;
  urf;
  xyz;
  asd;
  if;
  blob;
  then;
  urf;
  bar:f0 -> blob;
  bar:f1 -> urf;
  bar:f2 -> xyz;
  baz:f0 -> asd;
  baz:f1 -> if;
  baz:f2 -> blob;
  baz:f3 -> then;
  baz:f4 -> urf;
}

Yes. I like to visualize my data.
