GeneralIs JavaScript the best example of "technical debt"? Pin

I was reading this article about how terrible JavaScript is:

The JavaScript phenomenon is a mass psychosis – Hacker Noon[^]

It got me thinking that the only reason that it stays around, to say nothing of its utter ubiquity nowadays, is because everyone uses it, and so everyone continues to use it because it would be too much of a pain to stop using it - which seems to me to be the definition of "technical debt".
