I am currently contributing to the JXA Cookbook on githubSo today I was reading over the original JXA OS X 10.10 Release Notes.The document opens with a list of Global Properties.The way I understand it, all of these "global properties" with the exception of delay & console.log are actually Object prototypes. I find the term "global properties" possibly very confusing for most users... I think some other term such as JXA Standard Built-in Objects or alike would have been much more approachable, but anyway I want to make sure I understand the grammar the way it's being used in this context. If I understand it correctly, all the elements on the Global Properties list are denominated as "global properties" in reference to the fact that technically in JavaScript " all top-level variables alre also properties of the global object". Did I get this right? I'm pretty sure I did get this right, but I've barely ever seen this use of the term being enforced: almost exclusively through a few notes in David Flanagan's JavaScript: the Definitive Guide. An official reply of someboby from the Apple Staff would be most appreciated on this one. I'm trying to be grammatically as correct as possible ☺ 😊 cheers
