Yes, that's a great example, especially with deep nesting which forced indentation makes worse. But the solution feels like working against the grain, when a language should be working for human readability, not for workarounds to make a scripting language featureful.

One would argue that forcing long conditions to be split up, and intermediate steps named, is rather encouraging readability. ~
