The TC39 efforts are already quite diluted to add major changes to the
language which, no offense, don't really add anything of value.
OP if you really want a whitespaced language for the browser check Imba:

It's not only a programming language but also a React replacement.
If you need to find the length of a filtered array IMO it makes more sense
and is more obvious to just use filter().

Lurker here, I also agree with most points expressed by T.J. Crowder.
JavaScript is a scripting language that can serve many purposes. I think
the addition of class and async/await only make the language better, and if
optional static types were included (a la TypeScript or ES4) it would
probably
So the proposal is basically having references to primitives like strings,
bools, etc?

The idea that optional static typings (OST from now on) are some
"contamination" from other languages

foo.bar.listen(callback) is no
I doubt there is a long term grand vision for JS. After all the focus is on
small incremental changes.
Personally I'd love to see optional static typings implement into the
language much like we had in ES4 but I feel it's too big of a change to be
considered by TC39.
My hope now is on completely
