Arguing with myself...

Optional parameter list is an easier sell since => is very unlikely to start a statement, while => may well end one

"may well" is too strong. My example in reply to Oliver was

  var empty = =>
  callLater(empty, "sorry");

But it's hard to think of anything else that might end an intended statement with =>.

Anyway, thanks for bringing this up. Sometimes TC39 needs to reach consensus in stages, e.g., maximin classes, only then to realize what most people could see: we need less minimal maximin (e.g., class "statics"). Could happen with arrows, but I wanted to provide some more detailed guidance -- and a cautionary tale re: CoffeeScript.
