Proposal: New "ends" keyword

That’s exactly my fear. It would compile with the wrong logic, and that might be a lot more difficult to track down. As opposed to just not compiling with the “missing end” keyword. If you were missing an end due to copy/paste issue, but you had ends , my guess is it would compile when it shouldn’t.

In the real world, if you had any doubt on how to code it you’ll code it the way you know will work. And then test it. Right!

I guess if this really became a consideration, then whitespace would also have to be taken in to consideration. Like, if you used ends , then you’d have to have it lined up like how python and those do it.

This proposal is separate from the endless method proposal (mine also). That one is strictly for oneliners, not for nested structures like here. This one is about reducing coding noise to increase conciseness and code brevity.
