I went to this tech talk on Dyalog (a modern APL-like language), and the speaker makes the argument that the notation allows certain idioms to be recognized more easily: https://youtu.be/PlM9BXfu7UY?si=ORtwI1qmfmzhJGZX&t=3598 https://youtu.be/PlM9BXfu7UY?si=ORtwI1qmfmzhJGZX&t=3598 This particular snippet was in the context of compilers, but the rest of the talk has more on Dyalog and APL as a system of mathematical notation. The underlying theme is that optimizing mathematical expressions may be easier than optimizing general code.
