Getting rid of FunctionDeclaration was not proposed.

If the proposed `let function` idea is no good, is it because
FunctionDeclaration-as-a-Statement is a better replacement? Or is
there a better reason?

You go read the spec and lurk.

It obviously doesn't help at all.

Consistency in implementations would help. An easier-to-read
ECMAScript specification would also help. Discussions like this can
help when they point out the reality of what implementations do vs
what the specification and its authors say vs what the so-called
experts, and worse (W3Schools, etc) say.
