Seriously, yes. Great thought process behind the design, marred by the good-for-nothing (subjective opinion) backslash.
If any of you design a language or a DSL, please, please - avoid the backslash - for the reasons stated above. Hard to type, introduces unseen problems, most will hate it. It (backslash) is unbecoming, of anything elegant.
