One thing I find interesting is that everyone loves to hate CoffeeScript, but its individual features/syntax are consistently lauded in conversations about other languages.

(Not to mention half of ES6 existed in CoffeeScript first, but that's a gripe for another day)

The composition of features is more important than just the individual features - CoffeeScript is a great example of when feature composition goes wrong.
