Please stop calling these ES5 opt-ins. They preclude the Program from being
strict, and so are forcing ES5-not-strict. Non confusing names for this are:
ES5-non-strict
Non-strict
ES3
By continuing to call this simply ES5 while precluding the program from
being an ES5-strict program, you confuse the crucial issue I'm trying to
clarify.
