I'd be interested to learn why it was decided to redact a possible new name for `global` in the latest meeting notes[1].
Although I do understand that redacting the name minimizes its chance to gain more usage, I doubt that the impact would be significant; if anything, I think people would have trouble to think of this form of standardization as "open". By the same argument, we could in principle redact any new prototype/global property, couldn't we? Is the intent not to cause a second "smooshgate"? What's the point?
