Comment (by maeder):

 @aiko I also agree fully with Richard Eisenberg and do not understand your
 objection.

 Therefore I would like if you could add "it makes the language more
 regular" under Pros, omitted your last paragraph, and really simplified
 the proposed grammar rules accordingly (namely without lexp and openexp)
 on ArgumentDo.

 (For a discussion/omission of group A and group B constructs I refer to

 users/2016-July/026299.html)
