ES6 is supported natively, it's an actual standard not a language a single person came with, it avoids a build step, it has all of Coffeescript features and more by this point, and Coffeescript's momentum has slowed. Seems a no-brainer.

And as for concision, ES6 seems just as concise. At worse you need an extra } or so, which I like to have anyway.
