This seems like it would actually increase the cognitive load of programming. It generally takes more effort to read and understand someone else's code than it does to write it. Every time Bayou "fills a hole", you have to decipher the code to decide whether it matches your intent (i.e., what you would have written anyway, which you have to first "write in your head").
