Key point being, similar to some random languages. JS and Python Syntax don't fit a typed and compiled language at all.
Pretty syntax would probably be something like C, where not every single character already widely reserved for specific keywords (like !, ', =) is reused in completely random ways.
Ah yes I also found macro syntax like
vec![andprintln!(to be a bit jarring at first. However I don't know if I would say that C's approach to macros is any nicer, with it's#definemagic
