The latter criteria means no new keywords. The syntax should look nice as a single line with reasonably verbose variable names. One issue is that Python code is mostly 1-dimensional, characters in a line, and you're trying to express something which is 2-dimensional, in a sense. There's only so much you can do without newlines and indentation.
