Ignoring performance, a lot of stylish JS hackers use Object.keys(o).forEach. How many run into the wrong |this| (arguments/break/continue/return)? Not clear. Something to study.
Well, I use Object.keys, etc, a lot thorough my code. I can't remember a case where I forgot to pass the `thisObject' parameter to the `forEach'/`map' call in the last months, though it was weird when I transitioned to a more functional coding style.
I guess the number of cases I was bitten by the wrong |this| in the beginning is about the same number of ASI issues I ran into when I started using destructuring assignments for arrays. I'd assume that has a lot to do with coding habits — writing without properly thinking.
`reduce' and `reduceRight' don't have a `thisObject' argument. Why are they the only odd ones?
