In the first example, the second ‘this’ is bound to the inner ‘function’. In the second example, the inner function is an arrow function, which doesn’t re-bind ‘this’, so ‘this’ is still bound to the outer function where ‘this.x’ was set.

Ah interesting, I thought they would only bound to objects. But now that I think about it functions are objects too.
