IMNSHO I think that it makes things more convoluted and aimless when we are able to shove any 'ol scripting language we want into the mix. Why not ECMA, VB or Perl. Then again, if you don't want it... don't use it :-D
I disagree with your last statement. If you're coding a project yourself, you can make sure you stay away from what you consider bad style, confusing constructs, etc. When on a team, or inheriting an old project, it's much different. In my experience, when a language allows too much flexibility you end up with a real mess. One of the best features of Java is the limited amount of allowed language constructs and idioms which leads to easily understandable code.
Learning the "rules" of Java is much easier than learning the rules of C++ or Perl. I realize everyone has their own favorite language but if I wanted to write scripts I wouldn't be using Java to begin with.

At JavaOne this week one of the announcements about future plans was for
scripting language support, specifically in the context of web pages, that
will focus initially on PHP support. It was suggested that an initial
reference implementation of this would provide PHP support in a future
release of Tomcat. This is at the early JSR stage now. So, it would not be
of much use any time soon. Still, it seemed worth mentioning in the context
of this discussion. The JSR for this is JSR-223, Scripting Pages in Java Web
Applications:
