Is this meant as a joke, too English-heavy?

I think it’s a reference to keyword heavy in an effort to mimic natural language similar to what COBOL tried to do.

They likely mean the pascal-like syntax

Standard Pascal has 35 reserved words compared to ANSI C 89 which has 32. Not a big difference in terms of English-heaviness.

Pascal uses words in a lot of places where C uses symbols
