Nice thread! Finally!

I 'know' Lea Verou since ~2010. She is a household name in web design and development. Like A List Apart, Chris Coyier, Eric Meyer.

I've read regularly her articles and used her tools for years. I'm not in web design and development anymore; more like category theory, functional programming - thus composition.

The title caught my eye. I wasn't expecting these words in a web design and development article; wasn't expecting these words around 'composability'. I read papers almost daily and I'm used with 'strange new' words.

I read also the article. It's far from being enjoyable, clear, useful, linking explicitly the term composition to this domain. Maybe we should step back a little bit and try to simplify things. They 'compose' better.
