Out of how many of the big ones are using scripting tools/language-to-language translation though? Hint: much more than you seem to be aware of/think.
Whether its Google Web Toolkit/Java/C#-to-Javascript generators, Closure templating, Haskell/Clojure/etc. mini-languages, TypeScript, etc. (Job Ad Requirements are one of the great ways to see all this stuff)
When you start working on big applications (e.g. I worked for 5 years on a huge electronic HR application covering everything from timesheets to recruitment to content management to CRM with multi-country, multi-language, multi-regulatory, multi-company, multi-site, multi-thousand users requirements) you realise JavaScript has serious shortcomings...although I still really like the language the tooling and knowledge advances have really, really helped.
