there's a readability factor that I feel is added when you use the whole function. Especially for compiled languages, the "less characters" argument has no weight at all.

It’s actually a “fewer characters” argument.

Actually in javascript es6 you don't have to type any word to create a function just () => {} which is the best notation IMHO
