I was giving the reason why I used the language standardized name 
(ECMAScript) in the previous paragraph that you snipped. However it is 
perfectly okay using the term "JavaScript" when referring to an 
ECMAScript implementation. The same happens when you ask for a Band-Aid, 
not a bandage; or ask for Kleenex, not tissue, or when you “Google” for 
a word instead of searching for it.
