In some of these languages, the use of "this/self/me" is optional, but
I'm not aware of *any* OOP language where there is no named reference to

The case I found astounding in C++ was in the initializer list where the
line
value:value
would assume that the first one was this->value, and the second was a
local named value (usually an argument to the constructor).
That was rather sloppy. Since this is only used in a constructor, and
it appears before the body of the function/method, the second one must
be an argument, or else something non-local.
Anyway, the construct is a bit of a surprise the first time you see it.
