I like features like pipelines (much cleaner than repeated assignment or nested parentheses in function calls) and compile-time macros. The sugar for multiple and destructuring assignment is handy.
I find the additional operators unnecessary, and not worth their cognitive overhead. The `?` operator was already used as sugar for a parameter-free function call. The `[]` operator could easily have been a function in a library instead.
