@mboratko in case you haven’t yet, I highly recommend you to read the topic [My mental load using Julia is much higher than in Python](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/my-mental-load-using-julia-is-much-higher-than-e-g-in-python-how-to-reduce-it/18902). It raises several points that are similar to yours, and has some quite insightful comments.

(I particularly liked [this comment](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/my-mental-load-using-julia-is-much-higher-than-e-g-in-python-how-to-reduce-it/18902/5) by @rdeits on that thread.)
