Doesn't that make it interesting? Nobody writes such thing, but when you are in chains of method calls and wondering what is wrong and why this isn't what it supposed to be, knowing advanced stuff helps in fixing issues easily. I found this when I was trying to optimize event handlers and I used bind without knowing it's side effects.
Interesting, and useful in an interview for discerning Javascript aptitude, are two entirely separate things. Nobody would know this off the top of their head without digging. You (nor I) didn't even know, somebody else had to point out why. Better to stick to converting strings to numbers and such, to weed out the ones who have absolutely no idea how to do the simple things, rather than trying to find ones who know incredibly esoteric stuff. Once you've weeded out the truly awful, try to find who's intermediate and who's advanced, by asking PRACTICAL intermediate/advanced questions, not patently esoteric stuff.
