I find the syntax hard to follow for the express reason that variable names and function names have no distinguishing features. If variable names were decorated somehow (a symbol, or color) it would be much easier to visually parse a function call. As is, my brain must remember exactly the (complex) names of functions and variables in scope to determine how to parse a function call. But I like the idea and am using something similar in a language I'm developing.
