Stdlib internal methods -- inline them?

[wcjohnson]

If you use one of the non-lodash stdlib methods like looseEq the AST transforms automatically import babel-plugin-lightscript into the final code.

Since babel plugins are devDependencies 100% of the time in the current ecosystem, I don't think most people will realize that they need babel-plugin-lightscript as a dependency rather than a devDependency which means their app may crash when NODE_ENV="production". And I'm not sure making a Babel plugin into a dependency is a good idea even if it is well documented that you need it.

Would you consider just inlining the builtin stdlib methods using AST transforms since they are all oneliners anyway?

I should have thought of that - good call. Yeah inlining sounds like the way to go

[rattrayalex]

@wcjohnson do you want to implement this or shall I?

May have to give this one a miss, I need to spend some time on the paying gig, they'll be wondering where I've been all week. :)

😄 sounds good!
