I’ve recently come across logical assignment operators (e.g., ||=, &&=, ??=) in JavaScript and am considering using them in my project. While they seem concise and convenient, I’m concerned about whether they are considered good coding practice.

• Are there any potential drawbacks or caveats I should be aware of?
• How common is their use in production code?
• Are there any performance implications?
• Do they improve or hinder code readability and maintainability?

Whenever I see logical assignment operators, a new thread is created in my brain, just to understand what it means/intended to do. This is kind of frustrating, time consuming (personally) and always I prefer little verbose code over this. Can any experienced JavaScript developers comment on this.

(I understand this is opinion based question, but I am Js noob and chatgpt is not helping me understand Dev community, please go easy on me)
