Well Bob, then you should not misquote me, I wrote:
"Javascript is THE language, ..."

I maintain that "Javascript is the language", and an implementation of such 
language does not make that language the implementation by itself,
unless you use "the implementation" just as an action [substantized verb] 
and not as a result.

"The English spoken in India is different from that spoken on the Isle of 
Man" is about differences in dialect. To call that "The implementation of 
English is different" well, that seems to me a stretch too far.

And even, because this is a computer-language not a live one [though I dobt 
that seen the different and emerging dialects], "The implementation of 
Javascript is different" would only be about the difference in dialect.
