The current spec misuses
~return~
completions. Those are use for propagating a literal syntacticreturn
in an ES function up through any intermediate syntax (which is handled by the?
macro) to the[[Call]]
AO which invoked the function, where it is unwrapped into a normal completion (in step 10.2.1 of that algorithm).Built-in functions do not need to deal with that propagation, so they can (and do) just return a normal completion holding the value in question directly. The
[[Call]]
semantics for built-in functions have no corresponding return->normal unwrapping.(The current spec text ends up propagating a return completion to the caller - that is, as currently written, it would cause a
return
from the code which calledfromAsync
.)
