The community does. You’ll notice that JavaScript command line tools are much fancier than other languages, with emojis and cool spinners. Being that many JS programmers are web developers there’s a sense of aesthetics baked in the community. Other communities don’t have to care about “pretty” in their day-to-day so their tools reflect it.
