I can confirm - ziyunfei is right.
Chrome console treats {}+{} as ({}+{}). The first one should be parsed as
"empty block, unary plus operator, empty object literal".
({}+{}) is parsed as "empty object literal, addition operator, empty object
literal".
({}+{}) yields "[object Object][object Object]" in all major vendors.
