You didn’t read the article. It supports CoffeeScript.


Didn't read the whole thing, nope.

But the title says "CoffeeScript is not worth learning".


The correct response at this point is: Oh dear, I will endeavour to read articles in the future :)


But the title says "CoffeeScript is not worth learning".

No, it says "it's not a language worth learning". The author's point is that CoffeeScript is not a language, but a tool for JavaScript.


I think it's quite obvious the title is deliberately misleading to get more people to read it.


Sure, but that doesn't excuse people from commenting without reading it.


The title is still misleading. It doesn't become clear that the author is advocating CoffeeScript until the end of the article.
