Thanks for your reply Dominic. As an end user, what should compel me to use Inferno for any production purposes? Bearing in mind React has the support of multiple billion dollar companies, several targets (web, native mobile/desktop, console) and a community of what is sure to be tens if not hundreds of thousands of developers. I just don't see the benefit of incremental improvements when they're not being integrated into that community. You lose all the benefit. I have no doubt Inferno is faster, but I suspect you're being disingenuous when you say all the same features are available.

The trouble I have is not specific to Inferno, but rather the idea that less and new is better. Eventually, your users will want something that Inferno doesn't offer, and eventually it will be implemented. And this will happen more than once, probably to the point where your library, too, is 45kb. So is all this work and fragmentation and confusion and comparing of benchmarks really worth it? I think not, unless the technology stands to bring something vastly different to the table.

The trouble with competing with React in its own space right now, stems from the vast amount of resources many of companies are putting behind it. You just can't make a Inferno Native, etc. I think we'd be much better off all working together on new ideas, not rehashing innovation in order to win benchmark tests.

All that said, I applaud the effort, as I'm sure this took a lot.
