In my opinion, this depends on the length of the code.  (And on your
background.)

Also, in my opinion, the advantage of tacit code (other than speed)
is that some manipulations are easier with tacit code than explicit
code.

For example, compare:
   3 :'10+y'&.^. 2 3 5
   10&+&.^. 2 3 5

Of course, indirect manipulations are sometimes superior
   1x10 * 2 3 5
