Comment (by adamsilverstein):

 After careful consideration around the risks involved in committing to
 this API as is, I am going to revert `wp.hooks` for the remainder of the
 `4.9` cycle with a plan to commit again early in the next release cycle.
 We released a beta of the hooks library
 [https://www.npmjs.com/package/@wordpress/hooks on npm], so developers can
 (please!) try hooks now in JavaScript projects with `npm install
 @wordpress/hooks` and also follow development on the
 [https://github.com/WordPress/packages packages repository].

 As disappointed as it is to see this reverted, I am excited about
 exploring [https://github.com/WordPress/packages/pull/40 adding hooks via
 composition] which will make hooks more useful for legacy as well as
 modern JavaScript. This is why I have decided to revert for now: it is
 important we get the hooks library working just how we want it before we
 ship it with a WordPress release.
