My original plan for @babeljs was to consolidate all the tools that involve processing source code. Lint, bundling, you name it.

Turns out that's really hard. Especially in open source where you're scrutinised so heavily.

I'll probably do it eventually, in private. I don't get much value out of open source these days.

Hard to stay motivated when people are yelling at you to justify every little thing you do and take your actions as attacks.

I would rather have a single consumer, with friendly users, with tight integration and a complete laser focus.

Unfortunately, it is very true and had been seen in many projects :(

Like you make a good point though Seb. The moment you start disregarding users, etc you lose. Tough but real truth & fair arg. for not OSS
