Let's clear this up once & for all:

- Progressive Enhancement is not anti-JavaScript.

- Progressive Enhancement != no JavaScript. It means "as much JavaScript as necessary".

- JavaScript is imperative for creating many accessible custom UI patterns. Progressive Enhancement advocates do not advocate against using JS.

We advocate *for not relying on it* for things that can be done accessibly just fine w/o it.

Why? Because you can't guarantee that JS will always run. Content should be accessible w/o it whenever possible.
