With Coffeescript (I don't know about Livescript) the compiled output is close enough to hand-written Javascript that, if Coffeescript suddenly disappeared into a black hole, you could use the compiled output as source if needed.
Livescript is a fork of Coffeescript, and LS 1.2 purports to have improved the JS output for readability, so I think you'd be ok.
Livescript is technically a fork of coco[1] which is a fork of Coffeescript.
