Fair point. I didn't really give this layer too much thought considering the focus of the blog. It could really be any Node.js framework.
Although saying that, if I had chosen Koa.js the stack would have to be called 3REK, or 3RKE :/

Please don't post dismissive comments to HN. A substantive point about the impact on debugging would of course be welcome.

#8yawn. another stack.
what are its merits?

I think if you take a lot at the motivations that Dan Abramov had for creating Redux [1], you'll see that improving debugging was at the centre of it. Check out his talk he gave at React-Europe. He basically is talking about improving developer tools. The functional approach Redux takes allows for you to see state transitions and replay actions - making it relatively trivial (compared to say Angular.js) to understand how to reproduce a buggy state.

Dude, this is half the point of redux. Theres a debugger that lets you visually step through every state of the store and your corresponding app - https://github.com/gaearon/redux-devtools
