Javascript is a dynamic language. And especially one that is difficult to do static analysis on. We get much more out of macros than we would with some attempts at static analysis, when it comes to programmer productivity in the end.

coolness of JS and safety of static analysis, that would be great

macros are just lame workaround:)
