Again I’m out atm and can’t reply on full, but I think if you read my post in more detail it already has the response to much of what you’re describing. I agree it’s not the bottleneck to programming languages overall, but it is the bottleneck to the HCI/UX component of language design. Edit: the git merge problem can be resolved by having a canonical text representation or doing a structure diff instead. As for the rest of your response, you’re basically saying you didn’t take the time to get a basic understanding of my proposal, and you think other problems are more important than the specific one I’m addressing. I’m not sure how that could lead to a fruitful discussion. I will take a look at the post about benefits of text though, so thanks for that. (Apologies if my frustration is coming out here, it’s just that I have had many responses—most much worse than yours—basically saying, “I didn’t read what you wrote but you should consider X instead.”)
