All true. In my opinion if you've just using the helpers to generate
code, it doesn't make the blindest bit of difference whether that
helper is generating JS that uses prototype or scriptaculous. And if
you're writing the code yourself (which you should to get the most out
of the either of them - rjs is a crutch) then which one Rails ships
with doesn't make the blindest bit of difference.
