The fact that huge number of people couldnt get past the syntax is why I liked efforts such as Dylan: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dylan_(programming_language) https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dylan_(programming_language) A bit better.

You get the power without the ugliness. Dylan I havent seen in a long time but Julia is taking off. Look into it if you havent. https://julialang.org https://julialang.org
