All of their examples are wordier than just function chaining and I worry they’ve lost the plot somewhere.

They list this as a con of F# (also Elixir) pipes:

    value |> x=> x.foo()

The insistence on an arrow function is pure hallucination

    value |> x.foo()

Should be perfectly achievable as it is in these other languages. What’s more, doing so removes all of the handwringing about await. And I’m frankly at a loss why you would want to put yield in the middle of one of these chains instead of after.
