@mixin and @include were introduced for scss to avoid introducing new parsing rules into that syntax. We support the original/shortcut syntax in sass files for consistency and do not plan to deprecate them unless there are changes to the CSS specification require it.
The examples we use on the website are as similar as possible to help people understand easier -- not because of any personal preferences on our part. As far as @extend goes, we briefly discussed introducing a new shortcut syntax for it decided to start simple and keep things the same. CSS is such a verbose syntax anyway so it didn't seem egregious. I'm not opposed to a shortcut syntax for @extend in sass files, but I can't think of one that works well with all the simple selectors extend supports and doesn't introduce parsing issues. Did you have something in mind?
