What is the motivation behind writing tools like these in JavaScript? Not everyone is going to have Node or NPM. I don't want to first install NPM to install a utility.

But Perl/Python/Ruby are very likely to be present on more number of systems (Windows being an exception). Why aren't more of these utility tools written in Perl/Python/Ruby?
