Did you just note Typescript, a superset of JavaScript that needs to be compiled into it, as closer to the system?

Also does it technically constitute a language? That feels like a stretch too.

Yes, TypeScript is a language by any definition.

"System" as in a distributed system I guess...?

And the chart even puts C more towards "obsolete"!

LOL, obviously this chart was made for fun!

Did the same with D's superset, betterC.

betterC is a subset... 🤦
