So then you pull in LuaFileSystem or LuaSocket or whatever you need. I never understood this as a huge limitation. There are plenty of very mature cross platform libraries for anything I'd grab out of node's standard libs. There's even libUV bindings (luv) which would pretty much feature match nodejs completely. Add to that LuaJITs FFI you get all of C's ecosystem as well. Batteries are helpful, but it's not like Lua is completely devoid of helpful libraries.
