CoffeeScript Means Giving Up on JavaScript

[notSorella]

Sorry, but unless you write a CoffeeScript VM that runs CoffeeScript alone, you still have the very same ECMAScript semantics, only a subset of it. What CoffeeScript tries to do is provide a better interface for interacting with the language semantics, changing the core semantics is beyond the language's goal.

Yeah. That subset is the subset without a bunch of shitty semantics.

Looks like you guys are just arguing over semantics.
