What's wrong with multiple assignment?

Question

JavaScript

to such a wonderful line of code

let observers : Function[] = presenter.view.changeSettingsObserver.observers = [];

eslint curses like this

Unexpected chained assignment. eslint no-multi-assign

Answer 1

There are a bunch of rules in eslint that seem weird. For example, the ban on the operation ++ and --. Or a prohibition to change something inside the object referred to by the argument of the current function. Or, for example, the mandatory use of this in an instance method of a class (a frankly stupid requirement).
In general, it resembles American legislation with jokes like "do not shoot at cacti from the second floor."
So set up lintconfig and don't bother.
