My first job was programming in COBOL before it was legacy. It is terrible. It always was terrible. It's not a natural language, it's not ambiguous, but trying to make it look like a natural language was an unmitigated disaster at every level. The same is true of Perl's "linguistic" design. Even just pretending to be a natural language spawns monstrosities.

Edit: see also Applescript.
