Occasionally when touching on this topic here or elsewhere, or when searching for it on the web, I haven't found an elaborate explanation to why exactly virtual DOM is (as it does seems wasteful, at least for someone looking from the outside). But perhaps as you point out, the only sure-fire way to feel the actual benefit would be to try to build one yourself.
So thanks for listing out some concrete things that may be easier to implement with a virtual DOM. And if there are any other good resources out there, then do share! :)
