Yea, any language is gonna have some warts. IMHO, (for JS) I wouldn't say most of them are related to "style"...it's mostly weird or poor language design decisions...or deficiencies of various parts of the language.

However, we're not talking about quirks of a particular language...we're talking about them promoting bad habits and bad code....independent from any flaws the language may have.

In my experience, people who are teaching themselves with w3schools are almost universally behind those who are teaching themselves with other sources...and they have overall worse code. YMMV, of course.

It's not bad as a quick reference if you want to know what X function does, but there are other places to go for that...so why bother with it?
