 From <http://heycam.github.io/webidl/#es-dictionary> step 5.1.4:

   Otherwise, if value is undefined but the dictionary member has
   a default value, then:

     Let idlValue be the dictionary member’s default value.
     Set the dictionary member on dict with key name key to the value
     idlValue. This dictionary member is considered to be present.

where "value" came from doing a [[Get]] on the object.

So in your case you'd get 0.
