I think Elm will be the norm soon. I haven't had a bad experience with it yet either. Even though I haven't used Elm for to long, I can't help but feel it's just the permanent way to go. I can't wait for it to be everywhere.
Yeah, I understand your point FP to me is great but I just started programming and didn't like learning OOP with JS. So it was easy for me to switch paradigms or practices a little. Everyone has there preferences though.

Can't see this happen.
Elm is awesome, but it's also rather different and self contained. Many (JS) devs sadly just don't like FP.

Ironically, FP-ness is general and transfers even to OO languages. E.g. JS's
Array.map,reduce,filter, lambdas, etc.
