Well, it's polluting the global window scope with all those helpers.

That's a reason to never use this imo.

There are plenty of other jquery-lite helper libraries out there. 95 percent the utility with hardly any cost in terms of script size.

Now that NodeList is iterable, I don't even know that converting to an array is that useful anymore.

[...document.querySelector('div')] is pretty easy.

Iterator.from(document.querySelector('div')) too (doesn't work yet in Safari).

You don't need to convert querySelectorAll to an array, you can directly iterate it, or use forEach.

Not if you want to map or reduce it.
