It is called attribution _line_, not attribution novel.

Wrong on all accounts. There are theoretically sound, practically proven
and therefore well-established rules of thumb – at least – in software
development. Ignoring them, or not being aware of them in the first place,
leads to objectively bad code. So as I said, it all boils down not only to
knowledge but to knowledgability, which comes from and with experience.

This is another common fallacy: Argumentum ad hominem.

Not with javascript. Nonsense propagates like wildfire in this field.
