the way I see it, you seem to need to learn and understand all the same concepts as when using regex in order to write a functional pattern in this. It does not seem to really offer any abstractions really. It’s just regex with a really really verbose syntax. Once you learn the concepts (which you have to anyway) then learning a new syntax should be easy with a simple cheatsheet. The syntax for this actually looks more complicated to me.
