This applies to everything in the browser honestly. Why can’t I bind a variable to the DOM natively? I want the variable X to match the value of <input> and vice versa without having to set up a bunch of listeners and hope they don’t go in a loop.
sounds like you want something like Vue baked into the browser. but i'd prefer React baked into the browser! we can't have both, so it's probably best we have neither :)
seriously though, why not just write a simple wrapper around event listeners + maybe some proxy magic and get the semantics you prefer? or find a library that does that, i'm sure there's a bunch out there
