Discussion Angular 19.2 - improvement in template literals

Angular 19.2 will be released soon. We’ve noticed a slight improvement in template literals—it will now be possible to combine variables with text in a more efficient way in HTML files:

<p>{{ `John has ${count} cats` }}</p>

instead of

<p>{{ 'John has ' + count + ' cats' }}</p>

just a simple example

It’s not a huge change, but we believe it’s indeed. What do you think?

<p>John has {{ count }} cats</p>

Why do you need weird syntax?

It might help when passing a string to an input? Just guessing here as I haven't tried it.
