All this extra magic with useEffects, new syntax and producing incompatibilities with the regular JS event loop model is soooooo confusing. I now notice because I'm using nodejs a lot where everything is consistent

Agree. If you don't "own" the compiler (or transpiler as it were), you're really on someone else's trip (which you are not in control) I super love the Svelte design exploration...but assembling your own compilation tool chain I reckon is a form of "freedom" to hold onto.
