Right, but that about halves the age of JavaScript as noted in this thread.

I fully agree that it is reaching a more stable place now than it was 5 or 10 years ago. It is still nowhere near as old as elisp.

Oh for sure. I'm not trying to make a case against Emacs or Elisp or anything. Mature tech is highly, highly valuable. I just wanted to know if JS could do it. Could it, can it host a whole unix-y, emacs-y OS?
