I taught programming a long ass time ago, a Java and C++ class. While I get that these languages are fairly complicated, the things people got stuck on was understanding control flow, expressions and data storage.

In other words, it wasn't the syntax, but the concept of a program running from top down (including loops or conditionals), how expressions work, and what a variable is and means. These fundamental concepts are sooo far beyond the comprehension of people it took a LOT to get down. After that stuff was understood, learning curly braces, keywords or indenting (for style not meaning) was so damn easy for people.

So I would expect an evidence based programming language to look completely different than this.

Edit: It looks like a primary use-case for this language is for blind people - for which use-case I know nothing about. It wasn't clear from the Quorum language website, but it is clear from the video linked by another commenter.

That definitely would affect how I would have written my comment if at all. Take my original comment with a grain of salt that may not even be relevant here.
