You can still do the exact horrible thing you're describing.
However, JavaScript now gets used by real programmers for real applications, and has therefore evolved to accomodate for that.
You're saying (incorrectly) that now inexperienced programmers can't put crappy scripts online without knowing what they're doing and hope the thing works. Well, you can still do that, but you can also actually learn the language and build serious stuff.
I can't see how this is the wrong direction for JavaScript.
