One additional fun thing to note is that despite "private" already being reserved as a keyword TC-39 when they did somewhat recently add private fields to classes a few years back decided on "hash names" over the private keyword.

    class Example {
      #privateFieldName
    }
Rather than:

    class Example {
      private privateFieldName
    }
The debate on that was pretty interesting.
