Benchmark: lodash.get vs optional chaining

HTML Preparation code:

<script src='https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/lodash.js/4.17.5/lodash.min.js'></script>

Script Preparation code:

var state = {
  wrapped1: {
    wrapped2: {
      location: {
    	search: '',
    	id: 12
      }
    }
  },
  data: {}
};

Tests:

lodash.get
var l = _.get(state, ['wrapped1','wrapped2','location','search']);
Optional chaining (babel es2015)
var _state$wrapped, _state$wrapped$wrappe, _state$wrapped$wrappe2; var s = state === null || state === void 0 ? void 0 : (_state$wrapped = state.wrapped1) === null || _state$wrapped === void 0 ? void 0 : (_state$wrapped$wrappe = _state$wrapped.wrapped2) === null || _state$wrapped$wrappe === void 0 ? void 0 : (_state$wrapped$wrappe2 = _state$wrapped$wrappe.location) === null || _state$wrapped$wrappe2 === void 0 ? void 0 : _state$wrapped$wrappe2.search;
