My first boss had an often repeated mantra in code reviews: "akdor, don't fight the damn language!"

If you're using Python, write with Python concepts. In C#, write C#. In F#, write F#. Etc etc.

React has many many great ideas. But they are perpetually fighting the language. Here we have a great demonstration of stuff that is built in to any ml-legacy language being hacked into js in a way that the transformation happens in the user's browser in a scripting language at runtime! It's both genius and ridiculously inefficient and alien.

Don't fight the damn language.
