That's not what I'm focusing on, and I don't know how you've managed to interpret my comment that way.
In your comment, you said this:

That's why I used classes as a concrete example of the larger point that I was trying to make. My point is that change is fine, but just continually adding stuff to appease people is not necessarily a good thing. All that's happened to JavaScript — as I already pointed out — is the foot-gun now has a wider blast radius and less travel on the trigger.
