tokens are tokens, shorter or larger, they are tokens

in that sense I don't see how this is more succinct than phyton

it is more than typescript and c#, of course, but we need to compete with the laconic languages

in that sense you will end up with Cisc vs Risc dilemma from the cpu wars. you will find the ability to compress even more is adding new tokens to compress repetitive tasks like sha256 being a single token. I feel that's a way to compress even more





Because llm tokens don't map cleanly to what the compiler sees as a token. If coding is all LLMs will be good for this will surely change
