Adding something is always gonna make things worse by default and has to be proven to be useful. Otherwise you have bloat and "yet another way of doing the one thing".
I'm a fan of this notation because it's consistent but language design should not just add features because it doesn't hurt.
I enjoy language features like this too. In fact, I love how languages like C# have handled nullability over the more recent years. No telling how many bugs I have prevented.
The only gripe I have though, is that I have to be remember which version does and does not support such syntax changes. It's not a major issue by any means, but when dealing with legacy applications, I tend to often forget what is and is not syntactically allowed.
