Curly braces

Name: Anonymous 2008-04-21 17:12

Why would anyone seriously want to use curly braces to denote scope? Surely significant indentation, or implicit scope based on the surrounding keywords, is far superior.

Also consider this: every time you wish to enter { or }, you must hold down the shift key. That is one extra wasted keypress per scopening and sclosing.

And it just looks messy, like a spastic has been scribbling nonsense all over your screen.
