Right now a very specific API is enforced that is Java-centric and makes for a very poor API in most languages. The specification should focus more on concepts that should be implemented and not specific classes and methods.

So far, almost every time a change was proposed in opentelemetry-js that would make the API a lot better and idiomatic for the user was rejected as it doesn't conform to the spec. This means that we are currently forced to implement an API that makes no sense for JavaScript.
