Addressed review feedback questioning a bot suggestion to add a guard check in the content setter to prevent it from running before type is initialized.

Analysis

The bot's concern was unfounded. In the constructor:

constructor(type, content, leftNode=-1, rightNode=-1, parent=-1) {
    this.type = type;      // Setter executes completely
    this.content = content; // Only then does this execute
    // ...
}

JavaScript property setters execute synchronously and sequentially. The type setter completes entirely before the content setter begins, so this.type is always defined when the content setter's switch statement evaluates it (line 78).

Conclusion

No code changes required. The current implementation is correct.
