    Java(S|s)cript != Coffee(S|s)cript

Lisp does not consider indentation significant, Python does. Smalltalk has cascading messages, Ruby doesn’t. I think these are simply design choices, and the goal is to find a set of choices that work together harmoniously.

Note that my proposed syntax still allows you all the chaining you want.
