If you use Babel you already have that, and just don't know about it. Most "upcoming features" shims do just that.

> failing fast is bad and the best reaction to errors is to mess up the page layout in the unexpected way
I don't even know what you mean by this, but the fact that you're conflating JS with "the page" suggests to me that you're not that familiar with server-side JS (which has no "page") and the enormous amount of code that is written to be compatible with it.
