All the minor syntax issues in Ocaml are just that, minor. After a week of coding in Ocaml you won't even notice them. The operator underloading is the most annoying, but with modular implicits on the way that will probably go away.

I disagree. I used OCaml extensively 10 years ago, and syntax is, in one word, terrible.

I don't care about the minor issues, but about the major ones; the ambiguities concerning ;, if and match; essentially, as soon as you're using imperative features (which often result in using ;), you have to be very careful to make sure your code means what you think it means.
