ES6 cannot support require as a function that synchronously loads
from the filesystem, and I think you know this.
Without a new extension, you cannot "import" from an old-style module
in the browser or the server. One must know a priori how to parse the
file before one parses the file. Old-style modules cannot (in
general) be parsed as ES6 modules, and ES6 modules (in general) cannot
be parsed as old-style modules.
Yes, so?
My argument was that Node.js has both non-module and module files with a
common suffix, .js.
You are mixing compatibility with "consistency" arguments.
