as noted in microsoft/TypeScript#15424 (comment), never was added for a specific reason. It is much more common for users to use the global name by mistake vs intentionally. this change was meant to alert users in these cases; unfortunately it breaks other cases, but we believe this gets the 90% case right. for other cases, window.name.
