I dislike the disingenuous discussion around it.

Last time this was posted, the author called out headlessui for being too complex, and presented a half-broken, non-accessible Select component as alternative.

Digging around the code, I found questionable decisions such as throwing away the entire dom when re-rendering a list.

I want framework authors to be clear about the tradeoffs they make. The Svelte and HTMX devs openly discuss the weaknesses of their solutions vs industry standards and are open about previous mistakes.
