I don't want to be overly negative, but it seems to me that author considers just different flavours of C.

There is a massive difference between Clojure, Prolog, and Forth.

The whole:

    type name = value—type-focused
    name: type = value—name-focused
    var name type = value—qualifier-focused
Is so much deep into details of how syntax might look like.

If you are choosing between Kotlin and Go, it is for the platform, not the syntax. If you decide between Haskell, Idris, Scheme, you do it with the syntax in mind.
