Most of the time you'll probably be using this with the babel cache enabled in webpack to rebuild faster. If your macro function is **not pure** which gets different output with same code (e.g., IO side effects) it will cause recompile mechanism fail. Unfortunately you'll also experience this problem while developing your macro as well. If there's not a change to the source code that's being transpiled, then babel will use the cache rather than running your macro again.
