I am sure pure FRP implementations will one day widely surmount these obstacles towards correctness. I'm personally not going to wait - a tunable CSP model seems better suited to the construction of correct (in the sense that it actually reliably works for the end user, not proof) interactive programs. That said core.async is not anti-FRP, most of the code that I've written using core.async leverages an FRP style quite liberally, but it's refreshing to not be ball-and-chained to that approach when writing interactive programs.
