I think the point @michaelficarra is making is that folks think of ' and " as interchangeable, which they are. And then they think backtick is interchangeable and it isn’t.

And you’re inevitably left with needing to choose 2 quote styles, backticks usually, and either single or double when you can’t.

Better would be an option to enforce single/double, with optionally enforcing backticks for concatenation.

And if @michaelficarra isn’t making that point, then I am!

Thanks for your interest in improving eslint. Unfortunately, it looks like this issue didn’t get enough support from the team and so I’m closing it. While we wish we’d be able to accommodate everyone’s requests, we do need to prioritize. We’ve found that issues failing to reach consensus after 21 days tend to never do it, and as such, we close those issues. This doesn’t mean the idea isn’t interesting, just that it’s not something the team can commit to.
