significant indentation is a major fuckup ... æsthetic
Q: Can you guess what is easier to read and to parse?
A: Smart tabs. Even better, proportional sans-serif fonts with auto indent.

Q: Why no one uses them?
A: Baby ducks, i.e., they prefer tty-alike terminals or notepads with fixed bitmap fonts (VS,gtksrcview,eclipse,textmate...) and blatant discussion about tabs x spaces and blurry x sharp text. EXPERT PROGRAMMERS MY TAIL LOL!

additional ":" per assignment is clutter, ";" after each statement is not
syntax should convey the “style” of programming
C syntax, for conciseness and clarity
Ken choose Pascal syntax (for Go), big mistake
IHBT, after all.
