This is like saying you cannot get killed having green at the traffic 
lights, BECAUSE the law says other lights must have red.

No, ECMA defines how a javascript engine should work in their eyes,
no javascript engine works exactly that way, because the builders of the 
engines either think of an in their eyse better way, or because they made 
stupid mistakes.

So you cannot count on what ECMA says. 

You should test it.
