#JavaScript without semicolons is old-school, not new-school: 😀
“During antiquity, most scribes in the West wrote in scriptio continua, i.e. without punctuation delimiting word boundaries.”
“After 200 BC, Greek scribes adopted the théseis system invented by Aristophanes of Byzantium, where a single dot called a punctus was placed at one of several heights to denote rhetorical divisions in speech”
