Why would 'they' not start C#Script or C+script or C++script on it's
own, rather than kill the nice peculiarities of soft typed JS to get
to the same end?

Because one of the two langauges would die off - too much resources to
maintain two branches?

Methinks that improving a language is just for improving,
not for unrelated ends.

It is ASP-to-ASP.NET all over again.

ASP.NET is a vast improvement over ASP! Yes, it was a painful move, but
years later, I haven't heard that much of a complaint.

Perhaps those that still do complain were not into the OO paradigm :-)

I'm sure "classic" Javascript will still be around ... maybe not futher
enhanced?
