Ehh... That's just repeating what I wrote. I did point out exact the same line from the same document as you do in my initial mail. I'm asking the mentors list if this documentation are true based on what's in the ECMAScript specification. What I'm really questioning are the documentation on "const" in this document: https://developer.mozilla.org/index.php?title=en/JavaScript/Guide/Values%2C_Variables%2C_and_Literals#Constants In this document it's not stated, fare less in bold, that it's a Mozilla-specific extension. A new comber to the language would much likely just read that document and not the fine detailed documents of every part of the language the first time. Some new combers might not read the fine detailed documents at all and feel they are fine with the overview documentation (which are pretty good at MDN).
