Reading the tutorial (http://code.google.com/p/anic/wiki/Tutorial) is a less unpleasant experience.

But after skimming over the tutorial my impression is that the concepts are so simple there's even less excuse for that horrible syntax.

Uncomfortable syntax can be excusable if you have a clear rationale for it, but I can't for the life of me see why this syntax would need to be this awkward.

I agree. After reading the tutorial, I want to try this out. It looks like fun.
