    I was early adopter of WebComponents and honestly they are terrible. If only they would have at least CSS layer which would be passed and I can reset styles and shadow root would be accessible ass private property and every element with id world be accessible through private property so I don't need to store them in weird way of query them.

    Then I would consider them acceptable

    In current state they are unusable beyond simple components
