But can you replicate his results for js in any modern browser or node environment? I agree that standards are fixed, but there is definitely a difference between implementation of those standards in different environments

Yes. It is very easy to replicate his results for JS in every modern browser and Node.js environment, because these results are part of the ECMAScript standard and can never ever ever ever be changed. Again, if you are unsure about this point, please read the other comments I have left in these conversational threads.

(Just to be clear, I'm not saying any of this to jump on a bashing-JS train. Think of e.g. the abiding love of having been married for 20+ years, it's not like your spouse has no sandpapery parts or faults, we can healthily admit them to each other at this point -- I just have learned not to rub against them.)
