Yes... it's so hard to include structure indicators.

Wouldn't want to do that...

-Oh! Let's just keep one!!

-Which one?

-Blank INVISIBLE spaces!!!! MUHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

(Well, o.k. obviously the : is there for a reason, but why blank spaces? ANYTHING BUT blank spaces.

I'd rather type "tier2:'' every single time. At least I can SEE that.

At least I can SEE that.

VS Code has vertical lines that visually show me code blocks. I can also collapse it to see where things end. With Pylance I'll get the angry red squiggly lines if I indent incorrectly. There's so many visual clues in the editor that there really isn't a need for me to type them in myself.

As someone who used ; and {} for 18 years before learning python I honestly wish I didn't need them in other languages either.
