I will rather strive for contrivancy in Javascript,
the opposite of such being JQuery.

Contrived:

If you see something that seems fake since it was too perfectly planned out, 
call it contrived. If you can easily predict the final minutes of a made-
for-TV movie, then call it contrived.

The adjective contrived describes something that is artificially planned, 
especially in an obvious way, so it comes across as faked or forced. It's 
not just drama that can come off as contrived. Someone's speech habits, 
wardrobe, or even personality can seem contrived. Whenever someone appears 
as if he or she is "trying too hard," they might seem contrived, or the 
opposite of "natural."
