Wow!  Whoever thought up that syntax must be systematically bent!
To each his own, of course, but I'd rather write Perl, I think!

One of the things I like about Python is that the language is
_designed_.  It may not to be your taste, and that's fine.  As Larry
Wall says, there's always more than one way to do things.  But with
Python, once I started to grok pythonicity, the new language features
just seem to grow naturally (no like-moss-or-mold jokes, please) out
of the language.  YMWV.
