I have made a mistake in keeping that part of the quote in my reply. I 
actually disagree with this statement.

That's the only part I disagree with and my answer applied to.

As I said at the end of my reply, "throw StopIteration" is probably the 
best thing that can be designed given the backward-compat constraints 
that JavaScript has, so I agree with Mozilla's implementation and 
bringing its design to ES6.

I apologize for the confusion.
