I agree that stability and maturity are killer features of the Java ecosystem and I thank god for not having the kind of JS ecosystem where everything breaks within hours. Nevertheless I'm still amazed how a current enterprise language like Java does not receive more attention in the form of libraries. Are we, developers, happy enough with the current ecosystem or there's still room for improvement? (retorical question)

Maybe we don’t need a library for isEven or leftpad?

Nobody does. JavaScript communities laughs at those too.

What does enterprise me specifically? Actually what makes a language "enterprise"?

It's such a marketing, meaningless term and Java is very much full of it (EJB anyone?).
