Well... yeah. The *AS implementation* of arrays are kind of useless if
you know how to do it with objects instead. Like someone else said, they
compile to the same bytecode as an object; they're just objects with some
extra properties and methods. So, even though I said an array should be
faster in a single lookup, even faster would be to use an object with an
integer as an index. But then it is essentially an array from an AS
perspective, since they're functionally the same.
