Interesting point. I wonder if "easier for them to read" is too simple. I took "read" as in "read words" or "read a book". But "reading" a program is not I think the same as reading words. Reading words could be this:

for i = 0 i < 10 i++ if i = 7 printf("hello 7") else printf("who are you");

But with a more pictorial presentation, it is easier to read the program.

for i = 0 i < 10 i++ if i = 7 printf("hello 7")

I'm just wondering - if we had a more pictograph based programming language would it be easier to understand?

This is the job of a tool like go fmt. Obviously, it’s good discipline to indent, but I wouldn’t choose this as the deciding factor for picking a first programming language.
