— Can you stop after otherThing is called, but before thing is called in both cases?

—

All the middle step would do is push the value into the user code, only for it to come right back out again inside the instruction token of thing

— I see

— Alright, I'm for it now

— So the dispatcher could instead just make the instruction token right there

— These kinds of optimizations are good

— But consider:
thing(foo = otherThing())

— Give it import$ polyfill, wat is the output? im on mobile

— It's tiny, but if it happens a lot then it saves a lot of heap dumping

— All possible cases must be handled

— Yeah, this would require control to be handed back

— I have never seen those constructions, what they do?
