With two alternate implementations of Raku (Raku++ and Mutsu, both targeting WASM, so running in the browser) AND both supporting NFG (which the JS backend does not), it is time to remove any references to the JS backend from the Rakudo core.
To give an idea on what could be removed, I have started a PR to do just that. Eradicating js checks will require a lot more work, specifically in tests, and in NQP, so I stopped doing that for now, until more feedback on this issue is obtained.
