Should JavaScript be split into two languages?
You wouldn’t see much difference as a user of those tools. And if you’re writing vanilla JS, you’d have less features creeping in over time. So it seems like you would benefit from this kind of change.

Yeah but if I change jobs or work on another project then I’d have to learn two standards.

Did you read the article? The sugared JS would be a superset of the target JS. So you would only need to learn the sugared.

Need to learn both because I still need to know what is sugar in order to use the subset.
