This does not make sense. The problem of being unsure about "which this"
already exists. Adding arrows does not make it worse. The new syntax
makes it better, compared to 'var self = this;' or .bind(this) hacks
that are more verbose and easy to forget -- that is, whose absence is
easy to overlook.
In use strict fat arrow will bring a lovely `undefined` wich is
undesired so nothing is solved in there.
Stop comparing apples to oranges. If we have today
"use strict";
function foo() {
...
setCallback(function () { ... this ...}.bind(this));
}
Then you have no greater or lesser incidence of undefined-this bugs due
to someone calling foo() instead of foo.call, foo.apply, or obj =
{method:foo}, obj.method() by changing this code to use an arrow:
"use strict";
function foo() {
...
setCallback(() => {... this ...});
}
If you don't like strict mode, keep that out of this thread. Incidence
of undefined-this bugs due to it do not change with arrows.
