JavaScript's case might seem different because people are always
programming to the Lowest Common Denominator of JS features across all
Browsers. ES5 was released in 2009, but I doubt if programmers even
today can use/rely on the new features (eg. strict mode, JSON, etc.).

The bottomline with JS is that almost none is using JavaScript
directly, it's almost always through some library which abstracts out
the incompatibilities.
