Same problem as Spine."js", playing hide the salami. Most JS devs still think JS means ECMAScript. Call it what it is. Python packages compile to C but they don't call themselves names like "Django.C", that would be disingenuous and obnoxious

In fact, Python packages do not compile to C, so calling Django Django.C would expose a complete lack of understanding of Python. In fact, batman.js is closer to a Jinja template being named with a .html extension.
Sorry, my bad, but you can replace Python with some Scheme implementation or anything else that compiles to anything. The point was "compiles to" != "is".
