Anyone familiar with JS is going to have some really good guesses at what a(482) is in this case.
And, even if you don't, you can always call a(482)

Yes, but "obfuscated" means "To make so confused or opaque as to be difficult to perceive or understand". That's obfuscated, not deobfuscated.

Is that difficult? Harder, but still quite easy.

My point was that the GP seems to have mixed the words "obfuscate" and "deobfuscate".

To clarify, that's what happens once you pass it through the obfuscation and THEN closure compiler. If you click the link you will see the obfuscation is much more complex
