I have recently implemented to quite large project with CoffeeScript, the most recent one for a full export to HTML for http://flairbuilder.com, and I have to say that CoffeeScript is a superb language. It's a pleasure to work with.

The kind of problems that the article points out are easy to spot. If small syntax changes yield significant output code, that will be immediately reflect in the program execution.

Plus, a decent code base will have unit testing in place, which should catch more intricate, harder to catch, unwanted code flavors.

That's rather optimistic.
