I am really disappointed seeing the "yet familiar" argument behind the C-like syntax.
It takes a day to get used to Python syntax, and another day to make it subconscious, that is to stop forgetting it.
The arrow in CoffeeScript is a pain to type, but overall CS saves you a lot of time.
How come Google that can dictate rules to some extent, doesn't have the balls to fix the long lasting issue with syntax? Why voluntarily subject oneself to, probably, years of pain?! Did they just start following letter-by-letter the success stories, like the one of Javascript? (scheme+smalltalk+java/c syntax)

I can't find an explanation to this.
