Because JavaScript and its complete absence of a standard library is a horrible abomination that should've been put out of our misery years ago.

I can't understand how anyone looked at JavaScript, worked with it for a bit, then decided they wanted to use it to build full applications.

Imagine you went through the pain of learning it to make a web front end. You want to make back end things too, but they all require knowing different languages. You're not learning another language, learning this one was hard enough! Easier to keep using the same horrible language for everything, of course.
