Is the AI’s explanation of JavaScript’s binary data handling accurate?

I recently got curious about why handling binary data in JavaScript (like with ArrayBuffer and TypedArray) feels more complicated than in other programming languages. To get some insights, I asked an AI for clarification and it provided quite a detailed response about the history and decisions that shaped JavaScript's approach to binary data. Here's a summary of what it said:

JavaScript was originally designed in 1995 for simple tasks, like DOM manipulation and form validation, and not for any binary data handling. As the language evolved and needed to incorporate binary capabilities, especially with the introduction of Node.js in 2009, the designers had to be mindful of security and compatibility issues. They introduced ArrayBuffer for safe memory handling, allowing different typed views (like Uint8Array and Int32Array) without direct memory manipulation, which could pose security risks. The AI concluded that while this design might seem strange or complex at first, it ultimately leads to safer and more flexible data handling compared to some other languages.

So, I'm wondering if this explanation makes sense to you all? Are there any inaccuracies in what the AI shared? And where's a good place for me to read more about this?
