Runes annoy me because they ruined the use of Svelte components as rendered widgets outside a Svelte site. I like using them in rich-text as rendered views but when Svelte 5 came out, the old way of simply setting the component props directly was thrown out and you implicitly are now expected to use runes for the props you pass to the components.

Which means, that anywhere I render those components I have to suffix the file as .svelte.ts Or switch to svelte/store but it's quite dumb to wrap everything as a Writable<T>

I still like Svelte regardless, but I just thought "why" as over-abstraction wasn't the original tenets of Svelte

Yeah, I opted not to talk about that in my post, but runes do tend to infect all of your code if you use them as intended.
