Is python really any better?

Afaik JavaScript only runs in a browser. If you want to make a desktop app your only option is something like electron.

For example, you can't make the equivalent of a bash script with JS, but it's trivial with python. I don't think you can do system calls at all with JS.

There are non-browser JavaScript implementations, the most well-known of which is node.js
