I wouldn't dismiss it so quickly. I dabbled with CoffeeScript for awhile, but didn't enjoy it until I used it full time for a week or two, and now I can't go back to JavaScript. The issues brought up in the article are annoying, but no more so than JavaScript's own annoyances (and in fact CoffeeScript fixes some of JavaScript's annoyances). After a couple weeks of using it you'll know what to watch out for an it will be very pleasant to use.
