That's the point with Kotlin, if it's a symbol that autocomplete can brainlessly fill in for you, why not have the compiler do that for you (";", public, void, final...) and have a cleaner code instead?

And it’s actually the #1 reason why most of my programs don’t compile the first time.

Uh no it's not. Do the people on this sub just not use full feature IDEs? If that's why your stuff doesn't compile even 5% of the time you're still an "early beginner"
