Chaining calls is an anti-pattern. Not only this is needless duplication of ye olde imperative statements sequence it also makes debugging, modifying ("oh I need to call some function in the middle of the chain, ugh"), and understanding harder for superficial benefit of it looking "cool".

It actively hurts maintainability, please stop using it.
