[PommeDeTerre]

This problem is quite minor and obscure compared to many of the other inherent flaws (type coercion and the broken comparison operators, the lack of proper namespacing, broken scoping, semicolon insertion, hoisting, prototype-based OO, and so on) we see all throughout JavaScript.

If those problems weren't enough to convince certain developers that JavaScript is a bad idea, and unsuitable for use, then it's likely that nothing will. This is especially true for server-side usage of JavaScript, where there are so many far better alternatives.
