Chapter 4, destructuring binding for objects

[drrckln]

Note that if the value given to such a destructuring binding is null or undefined, you get an error, much like you would if you’d directly try to access a property of those values.

This doesn't appear to be the case in the code editor. If I try the below code, destructuring on the nonexistent property "jam", it simply assigns undefined, rather than raising an error.

let {jam} = {name: "Faraji", age: 23}; console.log(jam); // -> undefined

Try let {jam} = null. Attached patch tries to clarify this.
