SilkJS implements both of these. I assume you mean sendfile(2)...

Because core JS does not define that functionality. That is a w3c standard based upon JS. "The Rhino Book" from O'Reilly is the only JS book i've seen which discusses this distinction in detail and clearly separates the core language APIs and (e.g.) the DOM APIs. JS defines NO I/O functionality (whether network or file or terminal), and ANY I/O performed "by JS" is being performed a non-core-language function.
