\ is used to call a method on an object instead of :

Is there a way to "customize" this? I find \ to be a very noisy character in the language syntax. Why was this chosen instead of . or even ->?

If you want to customize it you can fork the code and update the parser. Changing it to . or : will not work without serious modifications due to the precedence/functionality those operators already have.
