the scriptExecutionStyle does leave out some, though.
My first test to see if D10 was going to improve a project kept running into problems with the 'cheater-navigation' MIAW I had in it for authoring. no amount of scriptexecutionstyle = 9 was able to convince it to deal with my D9 MIAW syntax.

Your choice, both are equally valid. The scriptExecutionStyle property only affects a limited number of top-level functions:
member() sprite() script() window() rgb()/color() Etc.
I don't have the full-list handy but the point is that the scriptExecutionStyle property was introduced to allow us to make all the top-level functions behave the same (if an object of the given name exists return a reference, it not then return VOID) instead of each behaving its own way as it did in previous releases.
I sent a request to get a tech note written that covers these but I'm not sure that's been done yet. Stay tuned as I'll follow up on that and see if we can't get one pushed live soon (so that you'll know precisely which functions are affected and how). But for now you can safely check the runMode property using either method.
