The political question is whether they can attract via their politics the people who make the cold hard code.
Code hard code matters far more than politics to nodeJS consumers, but nodeJS producers may be influenced by politics.
You want to be the side that attracts the cold hard coders similarly to the way communists defected to the west during the cold war.
