Two choices dictate a terminator: (a) free form 1D language like C vs 2D language like Python or Haskell, and, (b) support for assignment statements x = y and the like as in C vs all statements starting with a keyword as in say ATS. I personally do not like the semi-colons either.

Doesn't even need to be 2D Layout. See, for instance, ruby.
