why in the world would any major language choose significant indentation in this day and age?

Matters of taste are difficult to argue with!

I personally don't dislike the new syntax, it does away with a lot of visual clutter and works quite well in practice (though editors could arguably support it better). The bigger issue is that different projects might have different coding styles and so one gets exposed to both no matter one's preference.
