Well, sure, if we're talking about the fact that there is no clear
separation in the web platform's exposed objects between "a container
that can be navigated" and "the thing currently loaded in that
container"; both are represented, kinda weirdly, by "window".
I know, impossible to fix.

I'm not sure I even know what "globalThis" means now. :)
It means "that thing that `this` would return in global scope". No
more, no less.
In practice, in web pages, that thing is a WindowProxy object as defined
