There was a version of Python (compatible at a bytecode level) that did implement braces for blocks. It was called pythonb, but it is now defunct, understandably for lack of interest. It was just a modification to the parser is all. So it's completely doable. In fact one could probably do it with a preprocessor of some kind. But there's little utility in it. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
