Did you read Matklad's recent post on Rust's syntax?

Because very little of what people complain about is actually syntax and is actually semantics.

But closure syntax is awful

Yes, that was very good read and help moderate my annoyance with Rust. I could quite figure out if the "unfolding" or rewrite of the examples had any negative impact on performance. If it doesn't I fail to see the benefit of the rather convoluted code used in the examples.
