You could also probably do nice things with the symbol "icon blocks" themselves, and provide them with colors or different visualizations to convey different contextual meanings.
The difference is much deeper, but the best way to understand it is probably to check out an introduction (there is a lot on youtube).
I'd personally be happy to give an introduction to anyone willing to listen, but this comment field is not the place to do it.
That is precisely the source of my skepticism regarding the use of LLMs to code. What benefits most programmers, teams and organizations in building and manage complex systems is discipline. Disciplined work produces systems that are relatively easy to represent and reason about, and the shallow lesson people take is that easy representation is a silver bullet.
People keep falling for that trap over and over again. Understanding it deeply can provide lots of great opportunity for interesting work though.
It naturally trains your memory as you use it. Definitely a language of choice for getting into array languages in my opinion.
