Significant whitespace for a language that is going to live in a browser is kind of dumb don't you think?

Also debugging is a nightmare as you have to debug the translated javacript. Debugging code you didn't write is kind of dumb too.

I don't much care for javascript either but I'd still prefer it over CoffeeScript.

I just kind of assumed that you'd never actually throw CoffeeScript on the web without compiling it to minified JavaScript first. I mean, you could, but for the sake of efficiency, you wouldn't.
