Lots of interesting thoughts here! I'll add one of my own in response to this:

We should code for other programmers, including our future self.

This is definitely true in the way you described it here, when it comes to what syntax to use.

Regarding what to write – that might end up being for users, or possibly aliens :P

Syntax and what to write don't really have much of a tradeoff though, so I think it makes sense to write for other programmers, as you say :)
