"It's not really about the performance" the parent comment was about the performance of lodash.

That's exact why I reply this though (or probably I should reply to your parent comment?). The place these get used are mostly performance insensitive location, it don't really do anything except ruins the readability. And the project is not that old either(It's a past es6-era project), I don't really get why it is used at all.

		I'm not a lodash stalwart or anything, but years ago when I used it heavily, it made navigating and manipulating large/complex/irregular objects much easier. It's LINQ for JavaScript. And it was very readable and consistent, since most functions in lodash have the same signature.
