Tail call example should contain explicit use strict directive

Question

The tail call example is not in proper tail call position, because it does not define the strictness of the function.

I believe per recent TC39 meetings (plus of course the draft spec) strictness is not a requirement of tail calls anymore.

According to InTailPosition, step 2 and the last meetings notes covering this topic, strictness is still required for tail calls.

Huh, I must have been hallucinating; those were indeed the meeting notes I was thinking of. Sorry!
