No surprise here. That's what you get when you have a language/ecosystem where core devs refuse to fix fundamental flaws, cuz for them breaking backwards compatibility is the worse crime that can ever be committed. And so all that happens in JS-land will eternally be layering lipstick on the pig in the cesspool. Too afraid of going through something similar to the Python 2 -> 3 fiasco, I guess because too many web devs and site admins would be incensed at being forced to fix their broken universe; as if it isn't already broken in its current condition.
