I always wonder how developers work where it makes a difference if I type } or END. I appreciate with regards to readability it comes a lot down to what you are used to, but I never understood the argument that you safe something by typing a bit less.
From my experience the design planning and just thinking about programs takes so much more time than the typing in that I sometimes wonder if I do something wrong.
What is the advantage of a less verbose language if let’s say the language capabilities are similar?
