You thought you were joking, but yes, kind of like that, but then actually, given that C++ was a direct result of C. Because JS only has the word "java" in the name because that's the name people were going to get tricked into thinking it was a serious thing over. Which is why the "real" language hassn't been called JavaScript for two decades now (but no one's going to use its real name, because ecmascript? really? do I need a cream for that?)
