AS3 derives from the ES4 proposal, which honestly felt like a bigger shift than Python2->3 transition. In fact, AS3 came out after work on ES4 already ceased, so in my understanding, "the JS we know today" won even before AS3 came out. Also referring to
Brendan Eich's comment in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25388721 : > When Adobe bought Macromedia, we saw a path to ES4 as a standard. This ended only partly in tears, as AS3 was too static and different (namespaces!), but the good parts got into ES6. |
