Pushback from the community means nothing to TC39. Zilch. Zero. Nada.

The only instance of something dropped was cancelable observables. AFAIR it was only because some other group at Google opposed it.

Everything else is carried full steam ahead. Enjoy your import() instead of the vastly superior System.loader. Enjoy your hashes as member access specifiers. Dumpster fire. Template literals. BigInts. `new.target`. Dumpster fire. `import.meta`. Dumpster fire

While it hasn't changed their minds, I do see the authors of the proposal actively discussing and engaging with the community. That's better than nothing, I suppose.
