That's interesting. Is there a language that meets all the seven criteria? I like the reasoning about "too sparse" language syntax; the article nicely demonstrates why it increases complexity and learning difficulties. Except for the requirement to be as close as possible in presentation and concepts to what was learned in mathematics, I find the points useful.
