Pros
Pro New features make JavaScript a bit less painful to use
Cons
Con Undefined
JavaScript's fundamental flaw. ECMAScript still has it. Instead of crashing at or near the problem with a helpful error message like any sane dynamically-typed language, it just returns a garbage undefined
value until it finally crashes in some other unhelpful location. Or worse, it doesn't crash at all and just doesn't work.
Con Even more complicated
One of JavaScript's primary problems is that it's too complicated. Adding even more features is not going to fix that.
