Working with something familiar is always a good thing. Having something intuitive is a great pleasure for your soul - you memorize generic principles, not specific constructs. I like in rust that they really put abbreviation all across the board consistently. If they use "fn" as a keyword, also system lib is abbreviated similarly "to the max". I don't have to remember is it "string" or "str" - Rust consistency saves time and makes it obvious.
