Good point about the proposal -- that'll be the answer in the end.

asmj.js as JS is irrelevant to the point I was making, because if you access the DOM directly, your code won't verify as the asm.js subset, and so won't run via the asm.js engine.

The asm.js engine is the javascript engine.

asm.js is javascript.

asm.js === javscript

No: that's a choice that Chrome made and Firefox didn't, for example.
