What is Syntax Sugar 
This is a term used to describe code that is meant to be more readable and helpful to humans.  

It’s sometimes called Candygramming
Can shorten code to one liners which can be helpful and easier to read 
Can be difficult to change and maintain in the future 
Can lead to hidden magic features that are used in the language eg _get and _set 
Is sometime perceived as a lazy way to write code 
Reduces the syntax needed to perform an operation 
If done badly then it can lead to over complication, bad abstraction and even worse code readability then before
