#5 is probably true for many people. #6 might be true, might not. Amplification of your ideas would be welcome. #4 needs some clarification. If you're making a global statement, then you're contradicting my experience and the statements of many CS users. Agree or disagree, clearly it's "debatable" and not axiomatic accepted fact. Or you might be saying that for some developers, including the quoted node developers (and possibly yourself), there are insignificant benefits. I listed the possibility that the node developers saw no significant return on investment, so if that's what you're saying, then we agree.

Exactly, I read your comment in this style (which seems to have been correct according to what follows my quote) and decided to use the same. These were not intended to be understood as the absolute truth brought down from the mountain. Although some of these points do roughly match my thinking (if I'm going to learn a not-JS-but-compiles-to-it, I'd rather use something drastically different which can bring significant gains — e.g. Roy or ClojureScript — or build -my-own via SweetJS than limited syntactic sugar)
