This argument can be used to promote each and every change, no matter how
obscure it is.
But you forget that you may be forced to read code from other people in which case you are
suddenly confronted with such weird constructs. Then it does not help that you had guidelines
for your own code. I fail to see this as a relevant argument.
As I see it, Pascals success was just the simple (still powerful) syntax and
semantic.
I would not like that this is given up by following trends and making Pascal
the same thicket as C.
And for what reason? Just to save a little typing? I can't see how this
outwheighs the disadvantage
of obscuring the code.
