Not really a problem; clients and servers always use different APIs in other languages. JavaScript is no difference.
The advantage is that you get to use the same tools for client-side development and server-side development. Testing tools, interactive development tools, editor tools, etc. When you don't have to build your toolchain twice, you can make your toolchain twice as good.
In theory. Javascript needs namespaces and modules before it will be useful for real work.
