Math (and Reflect, JSON, etc) are functioning not as objects with per-instance state, but as namespaces. Infinity is a value object, but doesn't carry per-instance state like a loader does. > > Fifth, the binding for `System` is not a general mechanism for > accessing loaders -- it is a binding for a particular one, the one > provided by the host environment. it shouldn't be confused with such a > general mechanism (which, as I say above, would be a bad idea anyway). > > Granted. My point was just that it's awkward to have an object which is an instance of a provided type, carrying per-instance state, denoted by a capitalized global property name. And that "System" as a name (by itself) doesn't describe the concept. Just my opinion - no big deal. The module design is very lovely. : )
