I agree. And it seems to me that it wasn't language issue, but lack of encapsulation. I also don't find those cons of using CoffeeScript convincing enough. Have these guys tried TDD? If you use TDD you'll probably find accidental overwriting out-of-scope variable in a matter of seconds. Because you should never rely on language syntax.
