Well, I use Object.keys, etc, a lot thorough my code. I can't remember a 
case where I forgot to pass the `thisObject' parameter to the 
`forEach'/`map' call in the last months, though it was weird when I 
transitioned to a more functional coding style.

I guess the number of cases I was bitten by the wrong |this| in the 
beginning is about the same number of ASI issues I ran into when I 
started using destructuring assignments for arrays. I'd assume that has 
a lot to do with coding habits — writing without properly thinking.

`reduce' and `reduceRight' don't have a `thisObject' argument. Why are 
they the only odd ones?
