I feel like many of the comments are skeptical or dismissive but this seems like a really clever idea.
So many classic textbooks use pseudocode to get the gist of an algorithm across, so this isn’t an unprecedented level of abstraction to be working at.
It makes sense that there would exist a middle ground of abstraction between an English essay and actual running code.
Another interesting thought about this: it’s almost like a quick and dirty transpiler for your own programming language design ideas. I’ve toyed with writing my own ”perfect language” and this seems like a quick and dirty way to test out the ergonomics of various syntaxes and concepts via pseudocode.
