That's a nice overview, and i also learned/clarified a few things by
reading it.

Like you, i've been working with it (mostly "casually") for many
years, but still often come across some behaviour which ends up biting/
surprising me. JS is unfortunately a language which is all too easy to
abuse (or get abused by), largely because it's so free-form when
compared to lower-level languages like C/C++. It's really easy to
learn to write unstructured and/or sloppy code in JS, and it takes a
lot of self-discipline to get into the habit of writing Clean Code in
JS.
