nice troll bait . . .
Python has always been the most READABLE and WRITABLE language, and
will continue to be extremely MAINTANCE friendly.
Perl has always been a WRITE only, MAINTANCE nightmare language. For
MANY reasons.
Nothing in the Perl 6 docs leads me to believe that it will be any
less cryptic and obfuscated and propeller head appealing than 5. More
complicated if anything.
