The programmer in me must know which was is more concise and elegant? "Oh yeah! Well, I can write that same document in 5 lines of hiragana? Less words means fewer syntactical errors!" (note to self that hiragana, nor kanji, end their lines in semicolons, but if they did would they be sideways?) I have a feeling that japanese syntax would be good for concurrent programming.
