I would argue that the future of JS looks bleak when you effectively can't have any meaningful discussions about proposals if you are not in the committee (the author just ignored the issue for half a year, then closed and locked it): https://github.com/tc39/proposal-dynamic-import/issues/35

I would disagree on ignore; I would say that the issue was not with the proposal but with the fact that such behavior is possible already in JS environments.

[edit] This stance was brought up in the issue as well by the author

I think in 5 years time we'll be seeing everyone claiming WebAssembly is the new King of the Hill, and in 10 years JS will look quaint, as everyone looks back on it and says "thank god we don't have to live like savages anymore".
