If you believe that then you haven’t spent much time working in different paradigms of programming languages.

Syntax is the easy stuff to learn. It’s any shifts in paradigms (eg pure functional vs imperative vs logic… etc) that takes time to learn.

And I say this as someone who’s written professional software in well over a dozen different languages. So I understand well the challenges learning something new.
