I do wish they had chosen some sort of visible block end, though, like a brace or something.
To my eye, clearly indented code is quite visible. Braces are only visible if they are indented properly; if you look at some C or Perl code where there are multiple statements on a single line, or nested blocks, with braces and semi-colons as the only separators, you'll appreciate how difficult it is to read.
Whether the compiler requires it or not, properly indented code is a Good Thing. Once you accepted that premise, additional block delimiters seem redundant.
