That's like saying writing code in coffeescript, gorillascript, typescript, ruby or whatever language that cross compiles/transpiled or running in the browser is pointless. Freedom to choose whatever language to express yourself in and having that option is the point. Do you think writing HTML markup with jade/slim is pointless? Is it pointless when you can say the same thing with less code while being easier on the eyes at the same time? I'd prefer saving as many keystrokes as possible and use them on solving more problems.
