On some level, readability is a subjective thing. So is expressiveness and general feel for a language. It's about aesthetics and reasonable people can disagree about language and API design choices. We're making our choices and we hope that a good number of people come to agree with them. However, part of the engine design is to decouple the language from the actual execution. The engine takes a DAG represented as a JSON object. We'll have parsers that create that DAG from Flux or from other languages like PromQL or anything that people might think of.
