I haven't done much playing around with Svelte so don't have any business injecting myself into this subthread, but your explanation piqued my curiosity.

So basically, reactive blocks are only allowed to run once per tick; if a dependency changes after a block has run, too bad, the block won't run again. That is really shocking to me. (I won't say more due to my inexperience with Svelte...)

This is all triggering my memory, I had forgotten how it actually worked so couldn't explain the issue I was having. But it was related to this exact behavior. I found it so unintuitive and difficult to grasp that I literally abandoned the project and decided to build it from scratch in React.

It's a shame because it's an otherwise lovely framework.
