I appreciate the context here, though I strongly dislike the reason. One of the values, in my opinion, of learning and working with multiple languages is being exposed to new paradigms and concepts rather than relying on a single approach to solving problems. At its core, javascript is a procedural language, with many functional concepts, and the more we try to hide the prototype-based underpinnings, I think it hurts this growth opportunity. With that said, JS is a mess in a lot of ways, so maybe this is worthwhile. Hard to know though until it’s too late to revert. Just my opinion though, I’m curious what others think about this and where I may be missing the mark.
