They are established as a feature in the language. I am not trying to
relitigate that. I'm simply saying that when transitioning from a typical
iterable to an object we shouldn't be forced into it as an intermediary,
besides which that doesn't offer any advantage over the reduce mentioned
earlier in this thread, and even has worse performance. The [key, value]
pattern was originally introduced for Maps to allow objects as keys, which
isn't even valid in an object, besides the pattern not being a tight
structure in of itself.
