Feature flag, please! (Looks like at least a compile-time flag should be practical, and maybe even runtime if it wasn't too much of a perf hit).

Will do!

I believe it should suffice to simply refuse to lex the token -- let me know if we'd like to do this differently.

(I'll probably also want to update this flag to be useNullishAwareOperators in the ?. patch but there's no need to jump the gun here.)

LGTM overall. I think it would be good have tests covering short circuiting.

Good call! Added these as well as a makeMasquerader case to cover the document.all behavior.

What’s the pro and con for extending LogicalOpNode instead adding a new class?

> Source/JavaScriptCore/parser/ResultType.h:184
> +            if (op1.definitelyIsBoolean() || op1.definitelyIsNumber() || op1.definitelyIsString() || op1.definitelyIsBigInt())

Could this be "definitelyIsNotNull" instead? I think we could possibly correctly cover more cases and have more maintainable code that way.

Thanks for the review!

Hmm, we could do that given how similar the emitBytecode implementation is, but the emitBytecodeInConditionContext would not apply (I guess we'd just early out to emitBytecode) and we'd still call a different ResultType function.

I personally thought the separation might be clearer, but do you have a preference?

We could do definitelyIsNotNullOrUndefined by checking against TypeMaybeNull and TypeMaybeOther, sure.
