Writing in JS is a sacrifice of performance in the first place. Besides even the smartest, most performant library in the hands of inept programmer will produce a subpar result. If you're smart, you can write quality, performant code with both _ as well as Sugar, I bet. Besides sugar is a much more diverse set of functions as far as I can tell. I like the idea and are willing to try it out. :)

Thank you much for your support of the concept. I have a great respect for _ and love what it does. We definitely have the same goal in mind, with different ideas of how to get there. I'm going to try to be humble and learn as much as I can from great code like theirs while at the same time trying to keep some hard lines about Sugar's commitment to intuitive and easy to understand syntax.
