No, it doesn't seem better to me. I find it very confusing and
ambiguous. What if you start forgetting whitespace? What if it looked
like this:
function test(a b c)
 print("note")
 for i v in ipairs(a) do
 b = {"1"2"3""boom"{"4"5"6"}}
 end
 return "a""b"15"ok"
end
Do you leave commas out of lists when you write normally? Do you write
sentences like this:
I'm going to the grocery store, the library, the dry cleaners, and the gas station.
or like this:
I'm going to the grocery store the library the dry cleaners and the gas station.
