No. bind returns a new function with this bound. You must call it separately. This is the key difference from call and apply, which invoke immediately.
No. The first bind wins. bound.bind(newObj) does not change this. The bound function keeps the original this from the first bind call.
No. Arrow functions inherit this from their lexical scope. bind, call, and apply cannot change an arrow's this. They can still pass arguments, but this stays lexical.
