The path is technical, the goal is technical. Teams are involved so both are also political.

Most importantly, we should not spend any more of our precious time on this unnecessary distinction.

Change is the only certainty. As a javascript developer I now have two options to help me through those changes. That makes me happy.

Lastly, I love a good fight.

Well, not quite. Instead of one good option you now have two less good ones. Not exactly a win.

io.js is moving along swiftly and its mere existence has already inspired Node.js to be better.

It's a huge win already and will continue to be.
