If the function has to be modified in any way in order to grant permission to be used that way, then it is not quite "did this".
Equivalent means that there is no difference at the AST level between o.f(a) and f(o, a), like there is no difference in C among (a + i), a[i], i[a] and (i + a).
However, a this keyword is way better than making the programmers fraction off a parameter and move it to the other side of the function name.
