Simple? It's a joke?

I've filled recent typo3.org survey and there wasn't any question about
TS learning curve. Because everybody knows it's a couple of years.

I know several programming languages and still not used to TS. I suppose
never will, because it's a real mess, without syntax or error checking.

The idea is to have like real programming language (why reinventing the
wheel?) and PHP is a logical choice.

So instead

object.stdWrap.if {
  value.data = some_value
  isLessThan = 1
  isGreaterThan = 10
 }

we should have normal:

if($some_value>1 || $some_value<10) { $object->render=true; }

Pretty simpler? And you don't have to learn a thing. Just to have public
objects and some API+properties for them.

Thus it would be a lot faster, because parsing of TS won't exist any longer.
