    Back when I did a lot of Perl, those were okay-ish to parse. Nowadays, not so much. I guess it's like Bash. If you write a lot of it (maybe some people do), it's probably simple. If it's only once every six months or less, eeehhh...
    It all boils down to familiarity, which comes from repetitiveness.
