The rapid cycling of JS tooling and frameworks has only been in the past few years really. And ES5 came after many many years of no updates to JS.


You mean the rapid cycling has been accelerating.

What has ES5 to do with this? It didn't come out of nowhere - it was being planned for those many years.


It's not rapid cycling until it's rapid, before that it's just a cycle. I thought you were referring to ES5, otherwise I have no idea what you mean - JS tooling wasn't going anywhere very quickly before ~2010
