On the subject of readability; I believe that a worded keyword; map(return $1+$2) gives a much stronger emphasis to "HEY, I'M DOING FUNCTION STUFF OVER HERE" than map((a,b)=>a+b) would. Of course that could just be a matter of getting used to it. I'm not against the current proposal, I just still fear that it's very parenthesized. It doesn't immediately make obvious what's going on. Douglas had a good word for it the other day. I've forgotten it. That fear might be unjust though and just come down to a matter of acquaintance. - peter _______________________________________________ es-discuss mailing list es-discuss@mozilla.org https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/es-discuss
