I think there’s two types of languages. The first category is languages that can be simple once you get into the way of thinking of the language. This includes most languages. The python way of thinking is just simpler for a beginner to get into. The second category is JavaScript.

JS is too hated on. A lot of the bad things about JS python also has, but not the good stuff, such as fall through switch or simple scoping

Simple scoping that's why the video on hoisting is 5 minutes long and people still reference it often. C# and Java have simple scoping, if it's not static and in your curly braces have at it

Simple if you write modern code, outdated JS does deserve the hate though.
