Yes it is. The success of CoffeeSCript is absolutely a validation that developers are more productive with syntactic sugar such as the class keyword, destructuring and many many other features.

Now nobody forces you to use them. So why complain? It doesn't make Javascript harder to read for you, quite the contrary.
