Rich Harris joins Vercel to work on Svelte full time

Yeah, but that's harder in practice. You often copy html snippets into your code, for example from tailwind or bootstrap samples. This is easier in JSX syntax; you'd just need to copy and fix up some attribute names.

I literally never do this, but I suppose there are people who use React/JSX as a glorified templating library. Even then I probably wouldn't do this and rather use a proper templating library where HTML is valid.

It's very common if you're working with Tailwind (since the markup is self-contained). No need to be condescending.

Sorry, I did not mean to be condescending. I do use Tailwind, but even then I don't really copy-paste HTML examples.
