Bah, it's the same as Maths: notations 'compress' the formulas but at the cost of having to learn these notations..

  yes, this. Completely. Is that more readable or less?

    For who? Beginners or experts?

      Experts. Optimising your whole notation for beginners is pre-emptively putting up a skill ceiling. Beginners stop being beginners (at which point they’ll outgrow the beginner oriented syntax) but experts will remain experts. Instead, optimise for teaching/learning the skills better rather than capping everyone’s skills. The presence of a learning curve is not an inherently bad thing. Edit: re-reading your previous comments, I think you and I are in furious agreement haha
