I think that some visual notations are more readable than text
(but not all). In particular, if you try to teach lambda calculus

helpful.

For some people, perhaps. I don't have a very good mind for visual things and I much prefer symbolic versions of lambda calculus. Perhaps beginners need to be shown it both ways.
