I hadn't thought of it in those terms, but I definitely agree. I also like that I don't have to decide up front that I'm going to write my whole app using it and can add it in later on where it makes sense. I don't know what to call that, but it's nice.

I wouldn't try to write a video game or anything like that with it, but for most of what I do it gives me what I want with very little complexity.
