Careful, that attitude is how we ended up with this infestation of JavaScript!

JavaScript is very much not the second best language for anything.

JavaScript came about because it was the only choice in the context for which it was designed, and then it metasticized into other contexts because devs that used it got Stockholm syndrome.

"Metastasized" is a fantastic verb for JavaScript
