Unfortunately, ECMA 262 uses 'reference' with several different
meanings. The only use of the word with Thomas's meaning is in
informal (non-normative) sections and notes. The formal meaning is
defined in Section 6.2.3. It is a rather complicated kind of pointer
to a property; it is NOT the *value* of the property.

Therefore 
  "The proper term is _reference_." 
should be changed to 
  "The proper term is _reference_ (informal meaning)."
