Javascript came a long way and despite its legacy quirks is actually quite enjoyable with ES6. We also added tons of good tooling (like TypeScript, React or Vue) to improve the web development experience.
While I still think, it would be nice to use a language that doesn't need 3 equal signs for sane comparisons, I wonder if Python with its strong whitespace to code-block correlation is actually a good choice for transmission and remote execution?
It definitely increases the size of transmitted code (tho probably by not so much because I think files are usually transmitted gzip compressed to modern browsers).
Are there other issues anyone can think of? It somehow gives me an uneasy feeling even tho technically a semicolon or repeated 0x20 don't make a difference except size.
