I agree with the author's point that JavaScript is getting too big too fast. I don't like all the new support for OO stuff. I don't like how TypeScript often looks like C#. I don't like the direction in which JavaScript is heading. I may very biased here, but I think things like the promise proposal not being a monad is an example of those small cuts that kill slowly. Instead of having a well-thought abstraction, we have a "quick fix" around some problems, but then we have a quick fix on the quick fix (async/await). I wonder what the future of JS holds, but I'm not too confident.
