In general, I feel that syntactic keywords should mostly NOT be
punctuation. Using identifiers mostly improves readability, and it is
easier for users of international keyboards.
I do not intend to rule out use of punctuation entirely. Some uses are
either deeply embedded in PL history ("." to select a name within a
containing environment) or consistent with normal written usage (e.g.
semicolon for sequencing).
Anybody want to argue for curly braces?
