Agreed here also that fancy syntax is not necessary. IMO a good goal is actually to reduce syntax for new features rather than increase it. If new syntax is contemplated, extensible syntax (a specific proposal for a universal syntax that significantly reduces parsing risk and does not require the user to try to look up the meanings of symbols) might be useful.
