Can we not start people off with inline javascript? CSP is a thing.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8" /> 
    <title></title>
    <script>
      function init() {
        var e = document.getElementById('foo');
        var txt;
        if (null !== e) {
          txt = document.createTextNode('hello, world');
          e.appendChild(txt);
        }
      }
      document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', init);
    </script>
  </head>
  <body>
    <span id="foo"></span>
  </body>
</html>

I like your example. I also see value in what you are saying. I’m actually pretty new to JS myself. Thanks for the tip!
