Thanks for clarifying - I hope I didn't come across too defensive. It's definitely become a sensitive spot when so many are dismissive, so I might lash out at

Thanks for clarifying - I hope I didn't come across too defensive. It's definitely become a sensitive spot when so many are dismissive, so I might lash out at those undeserving of it. As for the language - JS definitely has its warts and its holes. It's not a language I love, but it IS a language I greatly enjoy developing for. Then again, I thought Perl was a great language (albeit with its own warts) so my views are fairly unconventional. Definitely though, I tend to think that languages fall into a more complex graph than just "better" and "worse", or even "better at X" and "worse at X".
