-1. __Parity__: you recognize that other languages, as languages, have no inherent advantage over JavaScript. With few exceptions, the same criticisms leveled against JavaScript as to why the language is not suitable for numeric computing (e.g., single-threaded, lacks native support for big integers, dynamically compiled, etc) is equally applicable to other languages, such as R and Python. That those languages have risen to prominence is more attributable to chance rather than to comparative advantage.
