If not for that asshole, we could've had a decent language embedded in the browser, like Scheme or Python!
I mean.. if there wasn't someone inventing a usable open source language for the browser it could have been some weird proprietary Microsoft language and our sites would still look like web 1.0
I didn't mention Scheme and Python randomly; they were the other options Netscape was considering.
Oh.
