The feature looks like an error suppression operator, right?
+
+
+
+No. Optional Chaining just checks whether some value is undefined or null. It does not catch or suppress errors that are thrown by evaluating the surrounding code. For example:
+
+```js
+(function () {
+ "use strict"
+ undeclared_var?.b // ReferenceError: undeclared_var is not defined
+ arguments?.callee // TypeError: 'callee' may not be accessed in strict mode
+ arguments.callee?.() // TypeError: 'callee' may not be accessed in strict mode
+})()
+```
