If you're proposing throwing half of Python's current syntax in the bin,
this isn't the right list either.
If not marginally malicious, I think it's delusional to think a post to
Language X's lists by someone who recommends multiple breaking changes
would ever be accepted. The correct response (if any) would be to use
another language or write your own transpiler that better agrees with your
aesthetic.
