I agree. The TC39 committee process has had a lot of advantages in modernizing the language, but in the last 3-5 years we've seen the pace of merging new language features grow in an unprecedented fashion. There are advantages to evolving the language but there is also a risk that the syntax becomes bloated if there is not enough deliberation within the standards process.
