As for the former, I concur. As for the latter, one should keep in mind
that every function is indeed a method (ES3 Final, 4.3.3) in ECMAScript
implementations -- if its owner is (and therefore the function is called as
a member of) only the Variable Object of the execution context (the Global
Object for globally declared functions, and built-in top-level functions
such as Number(); see ES3 Final, subsection 10.1.5). However, to
distinguish between constructors and methods is typically VK again; every
constructor is a function, hence it is also a method.
