This Javascript related instruction is complex in terms of a bitwise operator on a single value, however complex it is still a simple operation; CISC-ness generally relates more to accessing memory or interacting with the hardware in complex ways.
From the definition given:
CISC designs on the other hand happily encode large, arbitrarily complex operations that take unbounded amounts of time, and have very strong memory models
