Yes, this .. and anyway, isn't the astronauts interaction during critical flight phases completely superfluous to the mission? The screens are there to tell the occupants how close they are to death, it seems, and little else.

Heck, for a long time - decades, even - the principle 'interface' to the rocket systems being used to regularly launch humans to space was, literally, a stick.

Javascript seems like a huge upgrade from a stick. ;)
