Wrong again. Allen did not write the original strawman:names proposal.-- from 
the top of private_names:

"Original proposal by Dave Herman and Sam Tobin-Hochstadt is here."

Follow that link and read 
http://wiki.ecmascript.org/doku.php?id=strawman:names#binding_private_names to 
see only examples using x.key, etc. -- no square brackets.

Mark's example predates private_names and so may have worked in the old names 
proposal, but only via square brackets. Not via dot -- so again *not* "the same 
syntax" as what even strawman:names proposed.

Never mind the private names proposal that supersedes names -- not faulting 
Mark for lacking clairvoyance here -- I'm faulting you for twisting "the same 
syntax" from its obvious meaning of "all the same syntax" to "the subset that 
uses square brackets".

You seem to have problem owning up to mistakes. I've counted four so far and 
each time I point them out you either deny with lots of words, or ignore. This 
makes it hard to justify continuing our little exchange.
