the only reason i use CS is because I can get away with typing way less than needed. There is a one time cost (huge? or not!) for setting up tooling to compile it automatically.
If not anything, typing is the only reason I love CS.
Because studies have shown (anyone got links, i know them from greg wilson's talk from CUSEC)
1) Less lines of code - less mistakes
2) You produce same number of lines of code, no matter the language
and (not related to studies)
3) less lines to debug
4) if you can deal with the idiosyncrasies of JS, that person can deal with CS quite well. (stawman argument anyone?)
