I agree with you, but what I was trying to say is that with JS's improvements, CoffeeScript isn't offering as much. A lot of the benefits are now native, so the CoffeeScript community shrinks and the tradeoffs of fewer people understanding it are no longer worth the trouble.
Elm and ClojureScript bring more than syntactic sugar to the table. Same with TypeScript.
Use CoffeeScript if that's what you like, but I think the benefits have faded of late.
I haven't really used it myself but the community seems to have some really dedicated people. I believe they just released a new version to put it more in line with modern js.
So I'd hate to stop a potential user from trying it because they read this and didn't think it was worth a glance.
The JS comminity owes them a lot cause es6 wouldn't be what it is without coffeescript so hopefully they keep doing innovative stuff that ends up coming over to us.

I think this is a little off the mark. This thread was discussed the influencing factors for coffeescript and this post showed how js is similar to a coffeescript influence (python). Personally, I think it's more accurate to thank python for doing innovative stuff that "ends up coming over to us". Repositories like this highlight how cs is waning.
