> Suppose you didn't have syntax highlighting. That might be a bit TOO contrived, at least for me. I could see this coming up for someone working with jurassic hardware not under their control though. Anyway, to play along. I think curly braces help tell what is happening in long source files with deep nesting. But also you could just render whitespace characters as something visible to count them to judge indentation at a glance to get your bearings. Of course the real answer here is don’t write long source files with deep nesting, but unfortunately other people are allowed to write code :p |

Like the late 1980s, when Guido was creating Python?
