Metaprogramming with ASTs is the second worst way to do it after string manipulation.

Everyone should be using an IR like C# source generators. It's a lot faster to process, more stable and more intuitive because it maps closer to the language semantics instead of surface level syntax. And then you don't need a simple syntax at all.
