Unwise.

  1. Undeclared identifier: main.  Breaks in strict mode.
  2. Used/confusing/unnecessary name: self.
       - Used/confusing:
           * There is window.self;
           * the name breaks local code with unqualified references to
             “self” written under the assumption that it refers to
             the same object as “window.self”.
       - Unnecessary: In your code, “self” is not even used.  There is no
         recursion, no self() call.
           * Older environments create a global “self” variable.

Unnecessary incompatibility.

If the value is at least conceptionally *constant*, how come it is 
*modified* to contain a new property?

If the identifier is conceptionally *a* *constant*, how come it is assigned 
a reference to a *new* object on each iteration?

As usual, your code, including your code style, is, unnecessarily,
a maintenance nightmare.

Ever heard of the module pattern and other environments than the latest 
Firefox?
