Yes, I can see why it happens, but I was surprised because I imagined that the first time the script is parsed by the internal engine, it need to know what the doSomething() method applied to, and create some sort of pointer to that object. But in fact it doesn't care what it's applied to, it doesn't even "think" about it until the method actually needs to be executed, and only then bothers to find out what the calling object actually refers to. That seems a costly (although probably inevitable) way of doing things.
