Yes, that's exactly correct. Babel, polyfills, etc. were all just guessing at the future.

- MatthewPhillips 10y agoI wouldn't say es6ml was "guessing", it was based on the old loader spec that was removed from ES2015, and was quite accurate. It's no longer relevant though, since whatwg/loader is quite different.
- anonymoose1234 10y agoWhen TC39 creates ES modules, it's re-inventing the wheel ("The node community has already made modules that work, why'd you make a new one??"). When the Babel community creates a module loading approach, it's guessing at the future ("The spec is the law! When the community makes something, it's guessing at the law!").
