I agree with your "# is visually irritating" point, but I'm not sure whether it's strong enough to justify unnecessary keywords... as far as case goes, of course you can use #t: it doesn't conflict with (<datum> ...). Admittedly that would be strange since you're not using it for its truth-value property.
