if one wants to get fussy, this means one can only call it JavaScript if 
being used in a Mozilla browser...

this doesn't seem to refute the association of "JavaScript" with "being 
used with a browser" though (and with other uses in other domains, the 
language often being used under different names).

although, maybe it implies one is legally obligated to this use, like 
for example, if using it to script their game server, maybe it is 
technically a violation of the trademark if they still call it 
JavaScript?...

that, or, maybe the term can still apply so long as one is using 
SpiderMonkey or similar as the VM?...

or such...
