Benchmark: Babel check ops ? with not

Tests:

Assign
const obj = {a: { e: { i: 6, x: 8 } } }; const i = obj?.a?.e?.i; const x = obj?.a?.e?.x; console.log(i); console.log(x);
Destructure
const obj = {a: { e: { i: 6, x: 8 } } }; const { a } = obj; const { e } = a; const { i, x } = e; console.log(i); console.log(x);

I'd be happy to help you understand the JavaScript microbenchmark on MeasureThat.net.

**What is tested?**

The provided benchmark measures the performance difference between two approaches: "Assign" and "Destructure". The test case involves creating an object `obj` with nested properties, then extracting certain properties using both methods. Specifically:

* In the "Assign" approach, we assign a subset of `obj`'s properties to new variables.
* In the "Destructure" approach, we use destructuring assignment to extract specific properties from `a` and then from `e`.

**Options compared**

The benchmark compares two options:

1. **Assignment**: We assign individual properties to new variables using the dot notation (`const { a } = obj; const { e } = a; ...`)
2. **Destructure**: We use destructuring assignment to extract specific properties directly into new variables (`const { i, x } = e;`)

**Pros and Cons**

**Assignment:**

Pros:

* Easy to read and understand
* Can be used when the property names are not dynamic

Cons:

* May incur overhead due to explicit property access and variable declarations

**Destructure:**

Pros:

* More concise and expressive
* Can reduce overhead compared to assignment by avoiding explicit property access and variable declarations

Cons:

* May have higher compilation overhead due to destructure parsing
* Requires the properties to be known at compile-time (not dynamic)

**Other considerations**

* Both approaches assume that the property names are fixed and known at compile-time. If the property names are dynamic, the "Assign" approach would be more suitable.
* The benchmark does not account for potential overheads due to object creation or garbage collection.

**Library usage**

There is no explicit library mentioned in the benchmark definition or test cases. However, it's worth noting that some JavaScript engines (e.g., V8) have built-in support for destructuring assignment, which may affect performance.

**Special JS features or syntax**

The benchmark uses a few modern JavaScript features:

* **Template literals**: Used in the `Benchmark Definition` strings (`const obj = { ... } ;`)
* **Destructure assignment**: Used in both "Assign" and "Destructure" approaches

If you're not familiar with these features, they are widely supported by most modern JavaScript engines.

**Alternatives**

Other alternatives to consider when performing similar microbenchmarks:

* **Using a testing library**: Consider using libraries like Jest or Mocha, which provide more comprehensive test infrastructure and flexibility.
* **Testing frameworks**: Explore frameworks like Benchmark.js or jsperf, which offer more advanced features for measuring performance differences between different code implementations.

Keep in mind that the choice of testing framework or library depends on your specific use case and requirements.
