Amusingly, I find s-exp syntax is one of the easiest to read now because it’s so regular and predictable. Since all the logic has to be expressed using data structures, you can’t add a bunch of weird rules to the syntax. On top of that, the code acts as a diagram so you can see relationships visually by looking at the nesting.

Truely an underrated concept. But you don’t get the nerd points for understanding memory management… And isn’t that what programming is all about
