[swift-evolution] Proposal to remove semicolons

Swift already doesn’t require semicolons, so I’m confused.

Are you saying you want to make this invalid?

    let df = 12
    let db = 12;   // do not allow this line?

And would you disallow constructs like this (single-line, multi-statements)?

    var x = 10; x = 12
