I just don't get people complaining of trivial or superficial stuff such as how to do ifs, loops or binding handlers. When the most important part of these tools are the architecture, the trade offs, the state managements, the tools, the libraries and the ecosystem.

Complaining just because of the syntax is just trying to convince yourself you don't like it.

It's like when people just discard tailwind because they don't like how ugly many classes together look on the html, ignoring everything behind it which is what really matters (and that you can still like or dislike).
