More discussion on this here: https://bugs.ecmascript.org/show_bug.cgi?id=309. CC Roger Andrews who had argued there that this should be 2- and 3- arguments only.
Good stuff there. But I would appreciate more detail from Roger on the "(Otherwise we get into over-complicated issues with vector 2-norms, etc.)"issues cited in https://bugs.ecmascript.org/show_bug.cgi?id=309#c15 -- if it's not just about excessive rounding error mentioned earlier.
Personally, I don't see a strong case against allowing hypot to be variadic from re-reading that discussion, and do believe that would be a more expected behavior for ECMAScript, as for example Waldemar's last comment below points out.
Agree, unless there's a footgun Roger sees that we should avoid arming users with.
