I think you’d need only a few hours to get used to the let style. Other syntaxes may feel more intuitive simply because we’ve seen more C-style code, but there’s nothing intrinsically “superior” about them. For me, the match syntax, the function signatures, the |> operator, and OCaml’s approach to shadowing are all very readable... often easier to grasp than the equivalent constructs in many other languages.
