When parentheses `()` are called on the Reference Type, they receive the full information about the object and it's method, and can set the right `this` (`=user` in this case).
Any other operation like assignment `hi = user.hi` discards the reference type as a whole, takes the value of `user.hi` (a function) and passes it on. So any further operation "looses" `this`.
Any other operation like assignment `hi = user.hi` discards the reference type as a whole, takes the value of `user.hi` (a function) and passes it on. So any further operation "loses" `this`.
