What if we developers would make things simpler instead of more complex?
What if we had a great standard library in JavaScript?

Are you kidding?
Why should any serious developer not use anymore a build system that might be more complex than many operating systems? Who wants to be bothered with dependencies, especially if you have to manage them manually. Let’s just type in an install command into the next best package manager and all the magic starts to take place ....
Why should anybody still care about anything that could be even only remotely close to software development, when we just need to use one-liners, fancy XML/JSON/you-name-it dependency descriptors, and third-party respositories where some code-magic automagically rains upon our 90 MB+ text editors (sorry, development environments)
