This is quite frustrating and I’d love to understand how historically this has happened.

If I write the following **valid** ES6 code into `discourse/services/foo.js.es6` and add it to the asset pipeline in Discourse it will fail to compile:

```javascript
const FOO = 'foo';
export default Ember.Service.extend({
  [FOO]() {
    console.log('This should work');
  }
});

```

But alas I get:

```plaintext

```

I know this is valid syntax as babel and ember-cli handle this just fine. The [ES2015 specs (§12.2.6) even discuss it](https://www.ecma-international.org/ecma-262/6.0/#sec-object-initializer).

I have also tried this syntax:

```javascript
{
  [dynamicMethodName]: function() {}
}

```

And it too has the same error.
