Your comment makes me want to write this symbolic generative grammar lang I've been thinking called "Roam" where you hand write code in pseudo natural langs compiled from lower level dialects with a root lang bootstrapped using Rust, so you could either enter natural accented commands or render code to a target natural lang. Mathematically it's possible, but I'm not sure programmers or end users would appreciate it unless their was a global kak like text entry system for keyboard input. Personally, I find writing by hand helps me "think differently" (I've coded on paper napkins) and the end result is usually much better because writing pseudo-code is much easier than having the distraction of writing correct syntax--a fact I always forget about but my professors in college always required.
