Julia is one of my favorite examples of learning in public as a developer. Her technical chops are unquestioned so when she says things like "I have no idea what import does" it really drives home how much the JS community has to do to bring along the rest of the developer population who just wants to make web stuff occasionally without going to JS Build Tool University.

I love this and maybe it would be great for someone who works on the spec/bundlers to write a "Dear Julia" letter explaining things and giving context to specific parts on why things are the way they are, and pointing out clear ways that we as a community should try to improve.
