If you can't recall the syntax 3 days later it's terrible. Same applies to awk, sed and the like. No matter how many times I used them for something, I always have to resort to the documentation, chatgpt or the like because I just can't remember the contrived syntax. Maybe I'm retarded somehow... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Python (dead simple, easy to recall): if monkey == 'fat': print('happy') vs. bash (horrible syntax pitfalls): if [ "$monkey" = 'fat' ]; then echo 'happy' fi you gonna forget about the semicolon, the spaces around the condition and it will error out. not to mention integer comparison operators... python also has some terrible syntax, but those are advanced things, like list comprehensions. jq...it's the same as awk, sed, bash... hard to remember for the reasons mentioned above
