How many tubes does that appear in any codebase you've worked on? Those types of constructions are typically hidden away in "helper functions" that are straightforward to understand and debug. They are certainly not typical in business logic.

Now we have two syntax to be familiar with and maintain. And you just know the clowns are going to come along and convert one syntax to the other because they can, which completely ruins the git commit and you can't tell what actual functionally was changed at a glance. There will be bickering and bikeshedding about "modernizing" codebases.

I don't know, I think it's really fine. It's very typical to compose a bunch of array functions together and, honestly, I think that's good form most of the time. This makes that a little bit easier.
