I think the module imports apis are a python2/3 moment for node.js ecosystem. There is no clearly superior way and as a consequence not too many people care, however it hurts for real.
The proposal to disable node.js style imports will just split ecosystem and make a large part of industry stick to ancient version / make a fork. Is that really worth the gain? Just check how long it took some bigger projects to migrate from python2 to python3

- cxr 2y agoThe difference is the language/standard in question neither originated with NodeJS nor is NodeJS now nor has it ever been led by the people behind the language/standard (unlike Python)... When you hear "NodeJS", you really need to bethinking of it in the same category as IE (wrt browser behavior) or Visual C/C++. It's but one, often (knowingly/deliberately) quirky, non-standard implementation by a group that doesn't necessarily have your best interests at heart or the interests of those outside their own platform umbrella.
