Every Java/PHP/etc developer I have ever met hates interaction with the DOM via javascript, mostly because each browser has it's quirks and things in the JavaScript/DOM interaction don't work as consistently as say type casting a variable in Java/PHP - when you write public String myVar = "my value"; it always works, when you want to position a positioned, nested, floated, absolutely positioned element for a menu via JavaScript/DOM ... you see what I mean :).
I guess what Mochi could say to be more accurate is "Makes interacting with the client side suck less", but I guess substituting JavaScript makes more sense to a broader audience?
