I feel like the named reasons, aside from being invalid (it should be really really easy to make a popup that tells you the function parameter names and/or types, like SLIME has been doing for...decades? with Common Lisp), are really bad justifications for creating an entirely new programming language. Surely the effort would be better spent on improving the tooling, because all of their concerns are tooling-related.
That also makes the language not about a "good user experience" as given in the docs, but "being compatible with modern IDEs". No thanks, I would rather improve tooling for an existing language that already has a community and ecosystem.
