Probably one of the more rational takes I've seen in this discussion... I happen to prefer the Deno approach, while I really do appreciate the efforts for better node.js compatibility, if only because of the sheer volume of modules out there.

I do think that new libraries should probably go the other direction with Deno first and Node/npm as a separate build target. I've started also reaching for Deno first for a few shell scripting chores where I need more than bash...

    #!/usr/bin/env -S deno run ...

Which has been pretty handy.
