I wonder why nobody seems to have designed a front end framework by sitting down and asking themselves how to express things clearly. Every single front end framework seems to have been designed by people just riffing on all the nonsense complexity already in the world. Odd syntax rules, lots of implicit behaviors and side effects, logic spread across at least 5 different domains etc.

Why hasn’t anyone talented designed a front end framework?

And before getting angry and downvoting me for this heresy: prove me wrong first.
