I don't get this idea behind Volt and also React and Vue components. We fought so hard to implement MVC in the past, so that we don't have code, database acces and views all in the same file. And now all of a sudden this is something positive again, because "we see the database queries in the component all in one place".

I am not sure to understand the point of class-based Volt components when Livewire already has inline components

Isn't splade doing this already?

The one PHP itch I wish they'd scratch for me is generics. I know it's been a proposal for quite a while but I imagine it wouldn't be at all simple to implement so I'm not going to hold my breath. Imagine generic collections in Laravel.
