It should be mentioned that you don't necessarily have access to all these namespaces, e.g. because you are working in a team. And you don't necessarily know which package to use, because your dealing with different companies with different rules for deactivating employees.

That's a Straw man. Nowhere in the discussion from the OP up to BrowserUk's neither team work nor "teams owning namespaces" have been mentioned, and by producing them you don't address any point of BrowserUk's post.

Apart from that, you deny having mentioned autobox when you clearly did so in the OP -

(Of course it would be nicer if tieing and blessing of primitives could be unified into one interface like the one showed in autobox ... please note: JS has internally primitives, only the interface is OO)
- and claim to have addressed the fully qualified subroutine call, when you didn't.

That doesn't further a interesting dicussion

Namespace pollution... there's no pollution neither if the oil stays in the gas refinery, nor when it is shipped to fuel cars. Pollution happens if the gas refinery or the cars leak oil. Namespace pollution happens when a module exports symbols into other namespaces without being requested to do so. See Exporter.
