This conversation has taken a very disappointing turn, and it just feels adversarial now. When you say something like,
> And no matter how bad it [JavaScript] is as a language, it still beats compiled languages as a dynamic extension and scripting language.
In a normal conversation, I can disagree, and we can argue all we like about the reasons we like or dislike various languages for dynamic extensions / scripting. Maybe I might learn something! But no, I'm just reading a monologue that you wrote about why JavaScript is better, filled with arguments that I've already heard.
