You can run absolutely any JS code, just through the ports API. Trivial things like Math.PI are in the core[1] or some package. [1] https://package.elm-lang.org/packages/elm-lang/core/5.1.1/Ba...

Again, I could not care less what is in core (which might not be there anymore without a deprecation warning) but I want to use JS functions if I need to. How hard is to understand these requirements?

As I said, yoy can use any JS function with Elm. It’s just through ports, not inline.
