Sure, but it's not as big as an ecosystem. Knowing JavaScript at this point is way more valuable than learning VBA. I'm not saying VBA is bad, I think visual basic is great, I have fond memories of it, but reality is JavaScript is going to be what companies are going to want their employees to know.

I'm sure Microsoft is probably at least considering making JavaScript work well with existing Windows APIs.

I think that's deprecated. They dropped support for UWP apps with JavaScript in Visual Studio 2019:
