Then why oh why are variables global by default? (this is not meant as an attack on your point, I fully agree, I just find this awfully frustrating about JS. Sane languages have scoped by default and a global keyword, not the other way around)

You'd have to ask its designer. Sloppy programmers do like globals and JS was targeted for them.
