I'd be curious how you rewrite the syntax to have the same features but less syntax choices. Especially if it was made in the same way, organic evolution over the years.

I suspect it might look different. Not better or worse, just.. different. Same core complaints.

Now what if it was written from scratch today? That would prob miss a lot of the warts you don't like. But it still represents a lot of complexity in all the features the language presents, so it wouldn't be Python - for sure.

Personally i love the syntax, but /shrug
