Being able to connect the output of one object to another, and pass it through a transform, helps structure code cleanly. Objects provide a generic way to communicate with each other, rather than having to couple tightly.
Traditionally we do this with streams.
In this experiment, we're asking the question "What if you are cool with the limitation of each pipe only being able to connect to one thing?", and seeing if there is anything of value here which is not too crazy or stupid.
The idea here is that objects can provide the minimal interface for these 1-to-1 pipes, and then if you ever need more it should be trivial to pipe into a regular stream (or eventemitter even).
