Same, I use Kotlin daily, and I would choose it over Java any day as it really solves a lot of its quirks very nicely. There are however some parts of the syntax that keep confusing me on a daily basis, curly braces being one of them. The other is the weird unintuitive asymmetry that is going on between function types and lambdas. For example, a lambda of type

    (Int, Float) -> Boolean

is written as

    { i, f -> ... body ... }

but a lambda of type

    (Pair<Int, Float>) -> Boolean

is written as

    { (i, f) -> ... body ... }

because `(x, y)` is a destructuring pattern that projects the first and second components into `x` and `y`, respectively. The pattern in the lambda has to use tuple syntax exactly when the type doesn't, and vice versa. Gets me on a weekly basis even though I completely understand what's going on, it's just not very ergonomic.
