This happened to me with comprehensions in python, and with JS' love for anonymous/arrow functions.

Once you get used to a language's "quirks" (so long as they're considered idiomatic), they no longer feel quirky, and it's usually pretty quick.

You get to the same point with non-considered idiomatic syntax also, the only problem being that it will be only you who understands it.

  • Only so long as you keep the habit going.

    I've definitely written some things that I came back to much later and had to relearn (which is somewhere between embarrassing and humbling).
