Not only is it a cognitive burden on programmers, it throws all the tooling off.&lt;p&gt;From Svelte: {#each cats as { id, name }, i}&lt;p&gt;JavaScript already has facility for loops and mapping, and relying on that will automatically get you tooling&amp;#x2F;IDE support. React handles this aspect quite well, and to me that&amp;#x27;s a point in favor of React.&lt;p&gt;I do agree with your post - especially on hooks being a step backward.</text><parent_chain><item><author>deckard1</author><text>I&amp;#x27;m a big fan of Svelte.

Here is the video I had in my bookmarks for a while, I still couldn&amp;#x27;t make the time to watch, so I hope my comment is not too far from reality.&lt;p&gt;[1]&lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.youtube.com&amp;#x2F;watch?v=qSfdtmcZ4d0&amp;amp;t=875s&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.youtube.com&amp;#x2F;watch?v=qSfdtmcZ4d0&amp;amp;t=875s&lt;/a&gt;</text><parent_chain><item><author>deckard1</author><text>I&amp;#x27;m a big fan of Svelte.
