static method ClassElement is defined via a "chain production" (http://www.ecma-international.org/ecma-262/6.0/#sec-algorithm-conventions ):

   ClassElement : static MethodDefinition

so the definition of PropertyDefinitionEvaluation for MethodDefinition is used  (http://www.ecma-international.org/ecma-262/6.0/#sec-method-definitions-runtime-semantics-propertydefinitionevaluation  )

Yes.

PropertyDefinitionEvaluation for concise methods calls DefineMethod with only one argument. Taht results in DefineMethod calling FunctionCreate with Method as its kind argument
