I agree - to a degree 😉 Because when they're used properly, they efficiently reduce boilerplate code - e.g. instead of combineLatest(v1, v2, v3, {v1, v2, v3 -> v1 && v2 && v3}) you get combineLatest(v1, v2, v3, {$0 && $1 && $2}). Also, $n is more intuitive for most developers (the same is used in Terminal etc.), and literally everyone I know who started using Kotlin is surprised with the it convention.
