One of the reasons traceur is not suitable is that it's a product of google and thus not neutral.
I've actually asked traceur whether they intent to become a full es harmony compliant transpiler but there was no response. And another reason would be that it currently implements some strawmans that conflict with harmony proposals. For example it's class mechanism is not loyal to the _current_ es harmony proposal, another example would be traceur generators not using the `function*` notation.
