They don't insert the semicolons automatically as it can't tell if it's the end of line or I'm about to invoke a chained method etc.
Not sure what the down votes are about as it literally increases 2 to 3 letters of extra typing just to append the semicolon after auto completion.
> In JavaScript the automatic semicolon insertion is almost universally reviled.
Why? There's literally no need except on a rare occasion. My IDE happily gets rid of JS semicolons and it's far easier to type.
Ruby and Python don't need one. Just feels tedious compared to other scripting languages.
