Most people are simply value oriented if it comes to programming languages.

I worked in many companies that would consider stuff like Java too "enterprisey".

In 2006 most employers said "There is an abundance of PHP coders, why should I switch to something more expensive?!"

Now they say this about JavaScript.

And devs think "Well, lets learn something to make money with. Since there are some much JavaScript jobs, lets learn it!"

I did so myself and made good money.

And they're mostly right -- there is great value in having one language be used by a large part of the industry.
