I realize this is just a preference, but the denseness forces me to think in Objects and composition rather than process.
I never thought of it this way, but I fully agree with it. Thanks for putting this in words. Maybe what we need is better highlighting of the current "scope" where the cursor is. Navigating in and out of the parenthesis is not trivial, and it feels like hunting sometimes. With Futures it would be convenient to be able to link different #then: and such, but what you might need is a "chained" object that does all that for you. I always think of ways to improve the current syntax, but in the end it seems like anything else feels unnatural, and the net result is not positive. So... more objects, less syntax... and better tooling. Regards, Esteban A. Maringolo
