gollark: For some reason this is fine, but if I change `result` to `result.someattribute` it says this:
gollark: ```html<style lang="sass"></style><script> import { onMount } from "svelte" import Loading from "./Loading.svelte" import rpc from "./rpc.js" export let id let promise onMount(() => { promise = rpc("get_page", id) })</script>{#await promise} <Loading />{:then result} <pre>{JSON.stringify(result)}</pre>{:catch error} <em>Error {error}</em>{/await}```
gollark: I am having a very incomprehensible problem.
