This makes it much less like a traditional forum. That changes things, as I now would have to trust the JS, to run it in my browser on my machine. The parent comment merely states a fact and expresses their disappointment. That is not something to downvote. Maybe the JS crown is a bit too allergic here? It is a perfectly valid concern and would be a reason for me as well to not use it, unless I took a lot of time to check the JS source. Even then, the JS might change over time. I would have to read all of it again and again to really be sure nothing nefarious is going on.
