I’ve honestly never understood why someone at Google or Mozilla hasn’t decided to write a JavaScript Standard Library.

This picture honestly looks more like C++ than JS, and before you yell at me, JS doesn't have any standards let alone competing standards so ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

JS doesn't have any standards

ECMAScript would like to have a word with you.

If however by “doesn’t have any standards” you meant it’s willing to sink to new low grounds every day, you would be correct.

The latter, and the underutilization of the fact that the standard library exists, and consequently the existence of so many micro dependencies.
