What the heck, if it was good enough for PL/1...

Choice of syntax is important, though. It's all very well
to come up with an "insert syntax here" proposal that has
some big obvious benefit, but if you can't actually come
up with a pleasing syntax for it, then it won't fly. So
it makes sense to consider potential syntaxes along with
other aspects of a proposal.
