It's definitely short, but are you doing it for the side effects? Then I find .map() misleading. I'd much prefer a .forEach(), or a for...of.

If you’re mapping for side effects you deserve a good rap on the head.

The main value of “map” is to denote a 1:1 data transformation. Plus this gets very fraught with many langages mapping lazily, and some not guaranteeing the order of operation.
