Thief way is actually the best among all of these imo, in terms of readability and efficiency.
They’re setting a variable to a function. Just use the original function. All thief does is obfuscate for literally no gain except character count.
I presumed it to be a standin for just directly using Math.max, since there's no nice way to show that in a valid code snippet
Yeah, that's my reading as well.
