kOS is good stuff, yeah. Very... immersive, heh. It has all of these weird design decisions from having been built to do relatively simple spaceship sequencing tasks first, rather than as a general purpose programming language, and having grown over time to do arbitrary stuff. That history gives it this really uniquely crunchy feeling that you just wouldn't get with a more modern, ergonomic system.

To be fair, theres also the kIPC mod that bridges and connects both kOS and kRPC together. I personally like the kerbal-y equivalent of Ada with kOS though ahaha
