You mention that Polymer is "sticky" and likes to only work with other Polymer elements. Since Polymer 3 is built on LitElement, shouldn't it have the same base level of interoperability as LitElement? Or do you see Polymer 3 elements that somehow have functionality regressions over the base LitElement?

  • Polymer 3 is a mostly mechanical migration of 2 to use ES modules.

  • Polymer 2/3 both use the class-based method of inheriting from a base element, but they use Polymer-isms (such as the notify stuff)

There's no real relation to Lit, aside some of the same authors.
