Refactoring makes this video more difficult to follow

Not so much a question as it is a comment, but going through the process of explaining one method to just delete it and refactor it with minimal explanation as to why makes this increasingly difficult to follow and commit to memory.

I totally agree. He does that in every lesson. That's why I like Dave McFarland

I can understand that. It is part of learning code so i think the shock value is intended. It always helps me when i re watch the videos. Also if you right click the browser then go to inspect then click console you can write js code right there. I found this useful when watching the videos that didn't require workspaces.
