IMHO the CoffeeScript syntax is ugly and confusing.
ES6 improves the language without borking the syntax so much.
To add something more constructive, CoffeeScript is still just a transpiler. I think the long-term goal is for browsers to "natively" interpret/run ES6 code rather than forever transpiling to ES5. Either that, or we actually move on to something like web assembly.
