First off, love svelte, the team is really doing a good job focusing on developer ergonomics.

That said, I’m not surprised to see a list of CVEs impacting devalue. After running into some (seemingly arbitrary) limitations, I skimmed the code and it definitely felt like there was some sketchiness to it, given how it handles user inputs. If I were nefarious or a security researcher it would definitely be a focal point for me.

I want to ask simply for curiosity. Knowing you felt this way about that code, and I'm assuming knew that it had some level of relative importance to Svelte as a whole, how did that inform your decision making, if at all?

Yeah I have never been a fan of the devalue part of svelte.
