ES5 introduced the concept of directives, using perfectly fine

I should point out again that "use strict"; changes runtime
semantics involving eval and arguments in ES5, it does not merely
prevent programs from getting to runtime (i.e., it is not just
stricter syntax, e.g. forbidding 'with').
But ES5 strict mode is not change only runtime semantics.
Yes, we know -- I didn't say otherwise. Is this important to the point
I was making in reply to Peter?
Yes it was important, because someone can quoted your words. And
someone when read that and will see the name Brendan Eich - The creator
of JavaScript and can do error conclusion.
For example:

Yup. ES5 spec is out, anyone can read it.
That was only example which prove my words. Your tone here sounds like:
"Anybody can RTFM" and is not related with my response.
I don't see the point in your reply yet. Excuse my bitchiness, but the
noise to signal on this list is rising and I object.
You are excused. My previous reply have questionable character instead
of disapprove your words.
When they do syntactical restriction in strict mode, why they are not
remove automatic semicolon insertions?
Are you digressing to summarize strict mode, and then ask questions
about its design?
Any other response on my question was better than that question.
However thanks for your reply!
