The problem with this position is that there are major dialect
differences between e.g. what IE 8 supports and what IE 9 supports, with
no change of language name. For that reason, it never occurred to me
that insistence on not calling Javascript "Javascript" had anything at
all to do with the critical issue of dialect differences.

I was well aware of dialect differences before I came to this newsgroup,
just from reading a book that consistently calls the language
"JavaScript", but that includes the information I need when deciding
whether to use a feature - which versions of which browsers support it,
and any incompatibilities and variations between them.

 From a dialect point of view, saying "There is no Javascript" makes as
much, and as little, sense to me as saying "There is no Fortran". The
Javascript dialects have as much in common as e.g. VMS Fortran and
Fortran 90.
