    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.
