Part of the removed code:

    test("guy", function() {
      assert.equal(typeof babel.guy, "string");
    });

Facepalming so hard right now

In case you hadn't noticed, this was a joke commit. The code in question was never actually a real part of Babel.

I assure you, I understand what an easter egg is. I was facepalming at the test, which was doing the equivalent of:

    expect(true).toBe(true)

Thank you for heavily derailing the productive, technically meaningful conversation I was having. Next time I won't say anything since apparently productive and technically meaningful conversations aren't what this site is for.
