Well the point was: - At some point, you'll eventually offload most of the JS effort to pre-exising modules that will more or less have bugs like this. And these kinds of bugs aren't apparent during development, or on a controlled

Not sure if you want to stick with that in the long run. As your project grows, it will grow out of that simple requirement. It's almost always that you need a more mature framework afterwards.

Being a JS dev myself, I really hate how they just pile tool after tool just because they can. Kinda defeats the original design of JS.
