if you are concerned with readability.
We can say this is better or worse based on readability. So when we ask someone explicitly "Which of them is better?" we need to specify the aspect we are looking at.
range object that represents a sequence of values
Again, its not a list.
Sometimes, you will want to initialize a list. This can quickly be accomplished by using repetition
Hmm... so the operation is called repetition.

slicing - extract

This is the moment when React will potentially blow your mind.
This is the part that I like about React. You don't need to get into the intricacies of DOM manipulation. For example, here we should have taken the existing elements of the DOM and then applied the update to them, which is quite a lot of work.
Compare it to what React does. It takes in our request that is to update the DOM but doesn't change what is not necessary to change, only updating what's required. React takes care of it so that we don't have to. This is what makes it so fast and dev-friendly.
without giving any indication as to the details of how the model will actually be built
This is useful because, say one wants to solve a problem. He can create a model and use his theoretical knowledge and logic to solve the problem using the model.
After doing so, he can worry about how he is going to create the model. As you observe, the thinking phase becomes much simpler than otherwise.
