Why not just require: ```javascript let of = Array.of.bind(Array); of(1,2,3,4,5); ``` That seems like it would work just as well, and not require special handling in the spec. > I'd be happy to eliminate the special handling in Array.of and Array.from if > there is consensus that it isn't desirable. I don't need it. (Although `es6-shim` currently seems to implement the special handling correctly.) --scott _______________________________________________ es-discuss mailing list es-discuss@mozilla.org https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/es-discuss
