It's not entirely accurate either.

Curly braces are everywhere, but they aren't used to distinguish contexts or end logical blocks, so you don't have the noise everywhere (increasing readability substantially).

Semicolons are used to logically distinguish list items. Semicolons are supported, but not required to terminate lines. This makes copy n paste easier for C# code.

Parentheses? It's a functional language... "()" is a valid value. Every lambda, tuple, parameter set, and value can be wrapped in them, and often must to be valid code.

In every case the reduction in line noise, superfluous characters, and inconsistent formatting is replaced with strict formatting requirements and strict variable definition requirements. That means better readability. It also means you can support multiline string literals and escaped variable names easily, further improving redability.
