14,636 Pointsidentical() method within the Null & Undefined challenge
First of all, the identical() method was never covered in the actual video. Why would you use it? To me, in order to change the code to make it work, it seemed logical to either change the myUndefinedVariable to a value of null, or make the myNullVariable undefined by deleting the null value and the assignment operator. I have no idea what the identical() method means or does so changing the double equal to the strict triple version makes 0 sense to me. I'd like to analyze it more ... which brings me to my next point...
Stop stop stop with these messages after a challenge that can't be closed out! It would be nice to be able to close the alert that says 'Congratulations you've earned X points yadda yadda' and then look over the code instead of only being given the option to click a "keep going" button.
For a site that dedicates a lot of emphasis in their videos about making things easier for the user when designing things, the incredible hindrance this presents just boggles the mind and it's driving me mad.
Thank you for your time, Love Huck,
