It's good to have some options, to prevent the ecosystem from stalling

I agree philosophically, but the JavaScript ecosystem has never been languishing for lack of options. If anything, excessive fragmentation is a real concern.

I agree that frameworks are abundant but there are not that many JS engine alternatives.

It has been raining JS engines since Netscape Application Server, alone on Wikipedia there are 22 listed.

Okay that's great

Interesting, I'm not aware of that many nodejs alternatives...
