I said it was better, just not much better.
The maintenance costs of equals is nearly zero. Scrolling over boilerplate seems like a real stretch, like saying a novel with a picture every chapter is harder to read.
I like that you can't accidentally forget to update it, which is kinda nice but is rarely a concern.
And it's a bit more readable, which is nice.
It's better, but folks are talking like it's Super Jesus and I think it's more like finding a dollar in the parking lot.
