Unless your go-to language is something like Haskell or Forth, that first phrase just means you are ignorant of how many brackets your favorite language uses.

Okay, it may use not that much more brackets, but I really dislike the places where you have to use them and it gets even worse simply because it does only use regular brackets. Why the fuck are function declaration and definition part of the same bracket? Why is its the same for conditions?
