I disagree. JavaScript is one of those languages who's default failure mode seems to be to pretend everything worked and just produce nonsensical results.

You're thinking of PHP. Modern Javascript has good error handling and is a pretty nice language to use.

I know that PHP gets a lot of flak but come on. Compared to javascript PHP is a marvel. I recommend you to try it.

Modern PHP has good error handling, too.

There are differences in style and views on things from the way they were long ago that float around. These impact a lot of opinions.
