Not sure if it answers your whole question but it means that the value of this.get gets assigned to all the other variables.

Makes sense, but why do we have to do it this way, assigning just get func to all other verbs (functions), cos this is an example?

It turns six lines into one line.

It looks impressive in software interviews, but I don't really see the use in it for production code. Not every JS dev immediately knows what's going on with this syntax.
