There is no point, it's just "to be familiar" and even at that it kinda fails because javascript doesnt have them but let's not make this a discussion about pros or cons because it's always going to be subjective and I just want to post my subjective opinion: I dont like typing them.

Kotlin has optional semi-colons, if you want more than one statement on a line, only then it is needed. Not sure how they deal with statements spanning multiple lines.
Semicolons do require shift-key on some non-US keyboards. That alone makes them annoying.
Last year I needed to track down a weird bug in a node.js service. The
code looked fine, the logs were fine, except for some edge cases.
After a full day of debugging, it was tracked down to a missing
semicolon (line wrapping can be hard).
