Sure, but there's no arguing to be done there. Is the grammar context free? Ideally, can it be parsed with small constant lookahead? Yes? Cool, no further discussion needed.
I'd be more open to this kind of discussion if there was an ounce of actual research behind what makes syntax more/less readable. As it is, it's just a bunch of people arguing endlessly about their very specific preferences. Just pick something sensible and move on.
