With the caveat that syntax is the ultimate bikeshed topic, one (IMO) syntactic wart is the special pattern syntax:

1. "Operators" have different meanings. `1 | 2` and `1..=2` mean something different in patterns than in expressions. Here is a silly example: https://rust.godbolt.org/z/76Ynrs71G

2. Ambiguity around when bindings are introduced. Notice how changing a `const` to a `let` breaks the function: https://rust.godbolt.org/z/aKchMjTYW

3. Can't use constant expressions, only literals. Here's an example of something I expect should work, but does not: https://rust.godbolt.org/z/7GKE73djP

I wish the pattern syntax did not overlap with expression syntax.

This actually bit me in the a__ when I misspelled my enum variant and instead match created a variable named like that, that captured everything and I got only a warning and very wrong code.

I think there should be `let`s inside match block if matching creates some variables.
