Felt the same about Polymer. Starry eyed devs open a pre-webpack build terminal, import the if (no else!) and for keywords, build dom nodes manually and tolerate a terrible debugging experience. Youtube loads a few seconds slower in Firefox, since it gets served a polyfil of a runtime and a slower build; Chrome had a head start with a native runtime. Sites built by starry eyed developers simply break on Firefox.
