> Of course one really could ask the same for all mouse and listeners. What is the actual reason for not use simple booleans to toggle the listener. I mean they are there afterall implicit in the language? Sometimes i just do not get why approaches get so convoluted, so there must be alot more to these things?

It seem to me that javascript gone in the correct direction with strings and array handling. You can do things that would require alot of effort in basic and turbo pascal "well in most other programming languages".
But other aspects of the language seem to gone in the other direction and the listeners ***seem?*** to suffer from proverbial diarrhea really digging into anally exhausting linguistics with apparent use and usability of zero?
Is there different people responsible for developing these two parts of the language? It piss me off to be Frank how one can convolute straight forward things into some mystic listener religion?
