-1 for me, as I think the examples make it look *more* ambiguous.
Whilst it can be a pain to have to remember to add the $, there's less
immediate information that the `do`, lambdas, etc. form a new block
and are not just individual word arguments to the calling function.

People saying "it just saves a character" seems to have completely missed my point and source code readability/refactoring options from a tool's perspective. It does more than save a character.
Let's look at it from the opposite direction. If "ArgumentBlock" were already the default then we could remove complexity from the grammar for the cost of a single character. That sounds like a great tradeoff to me, and is the reason I can't support ArgumentBlock.
