I personally love that OpenGL is 'plain old' haha. Not to criticise your comment at all - but as someone who's been forced to work with OpenGL 3.3-4 quite a lot recently ... it's pretty incredible at times.

Also - as I understand it, what's impressive about all this isn't just the graphics. Once you've passed vertices etc... off to the graphics pipeline then yes Javascript doesn't handle much of the load .... but as we know a lot of games are CPU bound, and the fact that Javascript is increasingly able to offer acceptable performance relative to the native compiled experience of c/c++ is pretty nuts.
