The company I worked for recently lost a dev to Amazon. I was chatting to him a bit before he left, and I asked him what prompted him to apply, and he said his goal going in was just to find out what the interview process was like - he had no intentions of working there. That all just followed after.
It just had me thinking - going into interviews with the goal of learning has always calmed me down immensely. Maybe that would help you as well?
Also, I'd have to check MDN for reduce() for the details as well. I think, so long as you know what the function does, that's just fine!
I've actually heard similar advice from companies when prepping for an interview. They suggested that I interview at other places so that I could learn and get some experience doing it! It was a surprise to hear that but it really made sense.
At some point I think most of us have felt like an imposter and that's ok. As long as you choose to continue learning you'll become a better developer.
Also, I look up stuff all the time! We're people and there's no way of us remembering what each method does all the time :)

Maybe I'll set up starting with January and go to some random interviews, just to learn and be rejected. (I guess that's a lesson too)
