> The JS Temporal proposal _does_ as far as I can tell, share many of the underlying fundamental concepts, which is great, but then confusingly has some types, such as `LocalDateTime`

I can't find a mention of LocalDateTime in the Temporal docs, did you mean something else?

It's a current WIP idea for the spec: https://github.com/tc39/proposal-temporal/pull/700

Figuring out a name is still part of the ongoing discussion, so this specific case of `LocalDateTime` isn't a huge deal, and I might have misrepresented things slightly in my original comment, sorry! But I do think the overall point still stands - that it might be best to just use the same names and terminology as Java does.

I think he's referring to https://github.com/tc39/proposal-temporal/issues/707.
