Great stuff! var tag = React.createElement Could make the code nicer to read...

  or even h1 = React.createFactory('h1'), ... and so on for every that you use in the file, and then use h1({}, 'text') in the code.

    What about h1 = React.DOM.h1;? Personally, I moved from using DOM tag names as variable names ('a' being the worst) to saving 'var DOM = React.DOM' (or '{DOM} = React') and then calling DOM.a(props, children...)

  You've hit the nail on the head. I've never seen a fair JSX vs. React.createElement comparison on a blog post. The latter is never given even a basic refactoring such as you and your child comment suggested.
