"Node is popular because it allows normal people to do high concurrency servers." vs "If my job was keeping Twitter up, of course I'd using a robust technology like the JVM." ==> So Node is not actually good for high concurrency servers?
"I want programming computers to be like coloring with crayons and playing with duplo blocks." ==> The wonderful wonderful thing about Duplo is it composes. Continuation-passing style (i.e. callback hell) is the paradigmatic example of a non-compositional whole program transform.
"Node has a large number of newbie programmers." vs "Node is popular because it allows normal people to do high concurrency servers." ==> Newbies are writing high concurrency servers?
"I'm a systems person attempting to make programming better." and "Node is popular because it allows normal people to do high concurrency servers." vs "If my job was keeping Twitter up, of course I'd using a robust technology like the JVM." ==> If Node isn't actually good for its intended use case how exactly are you making programming better?
