Yea but this is going from the assumption that there aren't benefits to using JavaScript or reasons other than snappiness for introducing new (or in this case a decade old framework).

We don't know how these decisions are made, who is making them, or more importantly, why they're being made. And attributing all of that to the developers being monkeys make me think the author has never actually worked for a real company before or is conveniently forgetting what it's like to.
