Unsure what's the point. Is it bashing JS? It's pretty much the same everywhere. For instance I'm learning elixir and you have

1. Enum & list comprehensions 2. `error`, `throw`, `exit` . Try/catch, try/rescue 3. `import`, `require`, `use`

I mean there are subtle differences, just like with JavaScript. so..?

If anything, Javascript doesn't have the luxury to do a breaking change.
