So your solution is to write a browser so you don't have to write JS? Supposing I just want to create an internal tool that allows me to collaborate in realtime with my colleagues on a document (multiple cursors, everyone editing at once) and I have to do it in an existing browser because I don't write C++ and only have a few weeks to deliver - how would I do this without JS? Also, it needs to work on Android, iOS, Windows, and macOS in FF, Chrome, and Safari.

I've written a lot of JS. And I put a lot of effort making sure there was high quality documentation about the language in the early days of developer.mozilla.org—so that other people could have a nice time when they write JS.) Secondly, you are aware—I'm certain of it—that the company behind Google Docs actually does have a browser.
