Indeed, we reached a happy place with Object.setPrototypeOf in the 
normative spec, and Annex B specifying __proto__ for those JS embeddings 
that need it for interop.

I'm not sure why you think I'm dissenting from any of that. My reply was 
to correct a misstatement about __proto__, and only that. Context!

Indeed, we reached a happy place with `Object.setPrototypeOf` in the 
normative spec, and Annex B specifying `__proto__` for those JS embeddings 
that need it for interop.

I'm not sure why you think I'm dissenting from any of that. My reply was 
to correct a misstatement about `__proto__`, and only that. Context!
