Don't minifiers convert these anyway?

    const a = 1;

    var o=1,l=2;console.log(o,l);

It's not even using const or let, it's flattened these multiple statements into one 'var' statement

This library actually has some pretty unique ideas, like the use of Proxy objects which is not commonplace in javascript frameworks. Even if it didn't, sometimes it's just nice to build your own take on something.

Proxy objects are absolutely common in js state management frameworks.

And yes it’s nice to build something on your own, but this project is clearly aiming to convince other people to use it in their projects.
