I would characterize it more as Joda likely informed Moment.js, which better informed TC39 because it was within the JavaScript ecosystem. As we discussed in plenary today when achieving consensus, every programming language that implements or revamps its date time primitives has the benefit of all the prior art that exists at that instant. TC39 always casts a wide net to canvas what other ecosystems do, but isn't beholden to follow in their footsteps and achieves consensus on what is best for JavaScript. So my view is this more represents what the committee believes is the most complete implementation of such an API that an assembled group of JavaScript experts could design over 9 years and finalize in 2026.
