You can write a Scala statement that makes perfect sense and whose semantics are clear. Then you apply a shortcut to make it smaller. And another, and another, and another.

And of course, those people pride themselves on in how few characters they can code something.
Until the Scala community changes its attitude (at least an attitude that I'm perceiving) from "See how clever I can be with this language" to "See how clearly I can express something in this language"
