Please don't be rude.

Verbosity is so much worst than syntax complexity because you ends up having dozens of different patterns that do the same thing overall but with subtile differences on edge cases.

There's a level of verbosity/terseness that's ideal for (your average) human. I don't know precisely what that level is, but I think many programming languages, such as C++ and Rust, have stepped way past that line.

If you look at JavaScript pre-ES6, you had at least 10 ways of doing OOP with really different behaviors when it came to inheritence or encapsulation. This makes the code so hard to understand.

The problem with JavaScript OO was, in my opinion, the use of prototypes.

As long as you introduce syntax to help with what people are actually doing (and not juste because it looks cool) syntax addition enhance the code readability.

This is simply an unsupported claim.
