Low bar or not, if you do anything web-facing, there is no way around javascript. And you will do a lot of stuff in a language that makes variables global by default.

A car metaphor for this conversation:

"I love my skoda! It has four wheels, and a roof, and a passenger seat!"

"That's a pretty low bar for things to love about a car. Pretty much all other cars also have those features, and they do them better."

"Yeah, well I also ride a bicycle, and my bicycle doesn't have those features."
