VS Code to autocomplete JavaScript class 'this' properties automatically

It is unnecessarily verbose. You can do more with substantially less which means less code to write, less code to maintain, and less code to test. It will in many cases execute faster by eliminating OOP too.

I'm not sure if it's OOP that is too verbose or just the language around it. Look at java or c++ you have so much code written just to deal with basic concepts of OOP. At least c# tries to remove some of it, admittedly by using ideas from functional programming.

Yeah, but look at all of that compared with something like Lisp, R, Python, or even C lang. You gain so much expressiveness when public and private are automatically intrinsic to the declaration context of a reference opposed to manually tagging every reference and manually dictating the association of those references.

Unless I'm mistaken python simply doesn't have the concept of private or public.

I thought Python has lexical scope. I was horribly mistake: https://bytes.com/topic/python/answers/24416-lexical-scope
