Yeah, like there's thousands of people holding off using Python because print is a keyword and not a function.

The less inconsistencies in a programming language, the easier it is to teach.

I agree. If I was designing a programming language, then appending to the end of a file, appending to the end of a string, and writing to stdout would all look the same.

Actually, I am designing a programming language, and they look like this:

  fileHandle << data;
  aString << data;
  out << data;
