I'm confused on one point.

Why would a new canonical notation be preferable to, say, also fully
supporting an alternative general notation (like Shriram's p4p, or a
derivative thereof) or even multiple notations in addition to retaining
good old s-expressions?

The idea would be that you could transform freely and readably between
alternative notations, enabling round-tripping without degradation.

I imagine that effectively providing tooling, syntax-extension, good error
messages, and documentation across multiple notations would be (ahem)
challenging, but so long as we're dreaming big ...
