What's going on is that => DOES NOT bind
this, because => arrow functions don't have a this at all! So from there it's lexical scope to find this which can misinterpreted as some kind of new interpretation (like the self = this pattern or binding)More implications:
Arrow => can't be called with new or bind(obj) doesn't work either
