Reason	What it means
Easy to read	Hica code looks almost like plain English
No boilerplate	No more public static void main(String[] args) — just fun main()
Fast programs	Your code becomes a real executable, not just a script
Smart memory	Hica uses a trick called Perceus to clean up after itself — no garbage collector slowdowns
Everything is an expression	if, match, and blocks all give back values
Learn real concepts	The ideas you learn (functions, expressions, pattern matching) work in every language
