#1 'use strict' already went a long way to disabling broken parts of the language without breaking backwards compatibility. While what you are saying can be true in general, I find many of the features are more of a design correction that happen to work along side the old flawed way. Take 'var' vs 'let' / 'const' as an example.
- marcosdumay 9y agoWhat will they use once people are mostly using strict, but the language isn't yet good enough (because the keyword is already there, but it still isn't a good language)? Keep adding rules and break the compatibility of strict code, or forget about it and live with current problems forever?
