Non-blocking cleanup suggestion:

function parseAcceptLanguageEntry(entry) {
  const langWithQ = entry.split(";").map(u => u.trim());
  let q = 1.0;
  if (langWithQ.length > 1) {
    const qVal = langWithQ[1].split("=").map(u => u.trim());
    if (qVal.length === 2 && qVal[0].toLowerCase() === "q") {
      const qn = Number(qVal[1]);
      q = isNaN(qn) ? 0.0 : qn;
    }
  }
  return { lang: langWithQ[0], q };
}

const langsWithQ = Array.from(tokens.map(parseAcceptLanguageEntry).entries());
// order by q descending, keeping the header order for equal weights
langsWithQ.sort(([aidx, aval], [bidx, bval]) => aval.q === bval.q ? aidx - bidx : bval.q - aval.q);
return langsWithQ.map(([idx, val]) => val.lang);

I hand-written it so it may not launch but I hope the intention is expressed in my snippet. I'm trying to save us from reallocating the array in the loop. Alternatively, you could also likely do const langsWithQ = Array(tokens.length); which I guess is simpler.
The other thing I wanted to improve in my snippet is to not carry around the index, since the langsWithQ preserves the order of tokens, so there's no value in storing it on the langWithQ struct.

@blushingpenguin - do you like the proposed changes or would you prefer to land as-is?

Nicer your way I think -- I wasn't aware of Array.entries. I have updated the code and retested it.

return langsWithQ.map(t => t.lang);
