On a phone at the moment so I can't try it out, but in regards to this "stricter mode" it says global variables must be declared with var. I can't tell if that means that's just the only way to declare a global or if not declaring var makes it scoped in this mode. Based on not finding anything skimming through the examples, I assume the former?
it also talks about the global object not being a place to add properties. So how you might do `window.foo = ...` or `globalThis.foo = ...` to make something from the local context into a global object. in this dialect I guess you would have to reserve any global objects you wanted to set with a `var` and then set them by reference eg
// global. initialized by SomeConstructor
var fooInstance
class SomeConstructor {
constructor(...) {
fooInstance = this;
}
static getInstance(...) {
if (fooInstance != null) return fooInstance;
return new SomeConstructor(...);
}
}
I'm guessing the use of undeclared variables result in an error, instead of implicitly creating a global variable.
