We have to work under the assumption that most development is done by inexperienced or, to put it bluntly, bad programmers. I would MUCH rather have bad JS code than bad assembly. One may crash a single tab in my browser, the other may crash my entire computer.

Unless you're using js in your hardware drivers it's very unlikely to bring down the entire computer

But with the state of software development maybe you are /o\

Dude what? The other guy implied that bad JS would kill a browser tab, not your computer.
