I wouldn’t say its bonkers at all. That’s a good blog post not trying to lay a ton of blame on any one person. But having worked with Macromedia/Adobe and Mozilla engineers at the time who already successfully implemented a majority of the spec they were quite frustrated with everyone else looking for ways to slow things down or stop it wholesale. We can’t change the past. Unfortunately we are reinventing a lot of what was done in that early work, but now with some strange syntax because of compatibility with dead features or 3rd party libraries that picked up the slack. At least we finally have a standard for importing packages…again.
