Ok gotcha. Hmm.. first I've heard this particular argument. React is on one side with heavy VDOM abstraction at runtime, and Svelte on the other side where compiler takes care of everything.

I'm going to take note of this because Solid's everything is just a reactive primitive lends to this. Not sure what to do with that though. Templating is the one place where there is always a lot of code. Even things like Lit. Diffing solutions aren't really end-user tweakable and less diffing solutions like Solid are bulkier without leveraging tools like compilers.
