I find this particular comment bizzare.

To which I would ask - why not use Rust or Java instead?

JS is good enough and simple enough to learn as a first language to play around with webpages and maybe later on deliver amazing UI interactivity.

Using it for enterprise projects with massive teams is like attempting to empty a river with a straw - then proceeding to innovate on small pumps to increase straw throughput. Technically fine but why not use tools actually made to draw water in large quantities?
