No other language or framework seems to get the same scrutiny as JavaScript. The Enterprise Java solutions never seem to get as much discussion but we all recognize it also as being equally if not more so absurd[1]. This is true of every language and framework that gains mass adoption and use. Scala projects are crazy complex, the python 2 to python 3 migration was a mess, none of these are problems. They reflect the improvements in every metric to the underlying platforms and systems - end user experience, developer experience, reliability, testability etc. JavaScript is in a phenomenal place today - we have come "full circle" in the same way that streaming has come "full circle" with cable - better tooling, new capabilities, improved experiences etc. There's a lot of keeping up with the jones' - that's partly nice as its job security and partly nice as a reflection of engineers improving our own ecosystem.
