I'd already said JS was quicker to learn and cheaper to hire though. The "worse is better" statement is just a phrase intended to succinctly summarise that point:
> It refers to the argument that software quality does not necessarily increase with functionality: that there is a point where less functionality ("worse") is a preferable option ("better") in terms of practicality and usability. Software that is limited, but simple to use, may be more appealing to the user and market than the reverse.

JS is simpler and cheaper thus preferable.
I guess I took for granted that not everyone is familiar with that phrase, sorry
