> If you're breaking backwards compatibility anyway, why not go all the way?

One tiny hobby language I use was changed to accept semicolons as an additional end-of-line, just to allow more easy copy-pasting of C code. It's surprising how portable C is in that sense too. If you're going C-style, probably best to stick C-style. (But I used fn in my own C-alike... who am I to judge?)
