I think that is debatable. CommonJS is certainly simpler, however it won't work for browser-based javascript unless you wrap it with appropriate tooling. In that respect it's not just inferior to AMD, but it isn't even a viable solution. Not that I'm against CommonJS. It just requires additional tooling to be "superior" so I don't think you should make such a blanket statement.

Browserify? Same wrapping as RequireJS would implement I believe, obviously not the 'same' but same level of performance hit and browser based tooling.

  Not necessarily since you can just concatenate everything and use almond.js. Much more lightweight on the tooling front.

    But browserify does concatenate everything.
