I agree. I've never understood or accepted the claim that Ada is verbose. It's simply clear and expressive. If there were some alternative concise syntax for "Ada" then I would not want to use it (because it would not be Ada).

This was proposed, as a joke, some years ago: https://www.adacore.com/blog/a-modern-syntax-for-ada

This is an old but good article on the topic: https://www.embedded.com/expressive-vs-permissive-languages-... Note that SPARK has changed significantly since this was written.
