The function was not checking if the parameter was actually a Promise
instance, but if it has a then method. Removing the utility function
in favor of a clearer typeof check, handling the case when the
thenable throws if then method is accessed more than once.

The difference between a thenable and a Promise may be important when using third party library (the parameter is provided by the user) and/or when Promise.prototype.then value is changed from userland.

I'm not sure this is an improvement? The behavior is the same?

Yes the behavior is the same. Another way would be to change the name of the function isPromise -> isThenable.

Actually the current implementation (and the one in this PR) is wrong if someone passes a thenable where then is a getter that throws the second time then is accessed.

It's not a big bug but promise test suites check for it.

The correct implementation would be to do it in "two steps":

  • First do const then = ret?.then
  • Then check if(typeof then === "function")
  • Then do then.call(ret, ...)

See here for an example

Please consider adding a test.

If you prefer not to - I'll add one sometime after this lands :]

Test added! It does fail on master and not with this PR, PTAL.

@ronag are you still blocking this or can your objection be dismissed?
