Yep, and, not that having to learn and become acquainted with shortcomings of new sets of languages/tools every other year isn't a fact of life for many devs that one ought to just accept. But having something run just (or as close as possible to) the same across many platforms make it more likely that that knowledge you acquired will remain among your best options when approaching a wide range of problems for a longer time. |

I mean this is a bit of hyperbole, but the point is that languages and platforms evolve, and given that JS has a bigger target surface than anything else in the history of computing, with more resources than anything else ever being poured into it, multiplied by approaches and opinions, how can it not be diverse. The world doesn't have the same houses everywhere either... Oh noes, they're building different styles of roofs over there.. the sky is falling.
