I don't know what performance concern you're referring to (probably a transpiler-only thing). But yes, I agree that it's crazy that you can't get solid references that you control (instead of aliasing bindings that the model author controls) without such shenanigans. I brought up that point [a long time ago](http://esdiscuss.org/topic/import-and-aliasing-bindings), and was told that we wanted to follow Scheme and ML instead of existing JS module systems. Which goes back to my "frankly confounding" comment from earlier... _______________________________________________ es-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/es-discuss
