The arrow =&amp;gt; should highlight as a single operator (just as &amp;gt;= does), for instance. Most people call these &amp;quot;arrow functions&amp;quot; so thinking of &amp;quot;=&amp;gt;&amp;quot; as the arrow operator is a habit that quickly builds.&lt;p&gt;They are controversial and everyone has different opinions, but I also think this is where programming ligatures come in extremely handy. When =&amp;gt; looks more like ⇒ and is even more obviously an arrow, I think that also starts to make it easier to visually &amp;quot;parse&amp;quot; the flow of code like that.&lt;p&gt;For what it is worth, arrow functions weren&amp;#x27;t added solely for compactness, but also to fix some historic issues with classic function syntax. (Lexically scoped `this` versus caller scoped `this` being the big one.) A new type of function syntax was desired anyway for those reasons, and the compact syntax was the icing on the cake.&lt;p&gt;I haven&amp;#x27;t had the pleasure of teaching such things to students at this point in my career, but I have given a hand to many a junior developer to grasping some of these ideas and I don&amp;#x27;t think it is that tough, though it can be a shock&amp;#x2F;surprise if the last JS you touched was many years before. Especially if you are trying to also learn what JSX and&amp;#x2F;or TSX add on top of all the changes in ES2015+.</text><parent_chain><item><author>xcambar</author><text>Tangent comment on JSX&amp;#x2F;TS&amp;#x2F;JS and a snippet found on reactivated.io.

It&amp;#x27;s a very typical functional composition pattern in React. Since this framework is targeted at those who want to use React, and presumably already use it, I don&amp;#x27;t see the issue. It&amp;#x27;s a snippet to show how Reactivated lets you use the React ecosystem, not &lt;i&gt;how to use React&lt;/i&gt; - that&amp;#x27;s what the docs are for.</text><parent_chain><item><author>xcambar</author><text>Tangent comment on JSX&amp;#x2F;TS&amp;#x2F;JS and a snippet found on reactivated.io.
