This is nonsense. Right tool for the right job. I was writing Javascript nearly 25 years ago. I'm not anti-javascript.

I want quality ebooks. People have been taking advantage of digital media 20 years before first Kindle or iPhone.

There are loads of platforms and tools to do interesting things that are well supported and very flexible. Making stuff that is brilliant and calling it an ebook holds back that brilliant interesting stuff. It damages the reputation of ebooks.
