I think people (like the author of this article) should explain the syntax of destructuring assignment {x} briefly to make it make more sense for the unfamiliar

  This looks similar to detructuring assignment, but it isn't: - no recursive destructuring - `import {y} from 'x'` is not the same as `import x from 'x'; const {y} = x`

    Thanks for pointing it out, didn't know that. But I think your second point is more to do with the fact `import` by default imports `default` instead of the whole thing. If you use import * as x from 'x'; then `const {y} = x;` works. I personally will consider it is `import from` being different from a typical object instead of {x} here being different from typical destructuring assignment (by that I mean they still follow the same pattern; not necessarily say they're the same thing.)
