Research direction

Start with tslib.js around line 38, where the issue reports helper functions being added to window, and compare that behavior with the available module.exports path. Review the existing issue discussion to determine the intended behavior and define completion as resolving or documenting why the global pollution occurs.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Is there a reason why tslib is pushing the helper functions to the window object when module.exports is available?
