So what? His concerns are real.
($LANGUAGE has been Java, Javascript and now C#).
Java used to be non-Free, so of course it was bad to depend on it. Especially for those programs which didn't work with the implementations which were Free Software at the time (GCJ/Classpath-based stuff).
I'm not familiar with the JavaScript story, but if he really recommended against using it, there was certainly a valid reason.
