I agree. I think this would be much better as

```js
function someThing(doWith) {
return doWith.map(elem => {
         typeCheckLabel:
         return elem * 2;
});

     come from typeCheckLabel if (typeof elem !== "number");
return "Not all are numbers" ;
}
```

:-)

(I agree with the encapsulation argument.)
