I'm not going to remove mention of the *fact* that coffee-script does not support function hoisting, which is the *main suggestion *of the style guide. Your "only algorithm change" destroys the ability to put "synchronous code" first, followed by purely a list of function declarations, which is the very thing the article is talking about. This is a simple provable fact. I'm confused as to why you are arguing about something that is so logically obvious.
