As the co-author of the article about the feature <https://web.dev/handwriting-recognition/> I find the namespaced variant more logical and more in-line with how other APIs work, for example, Geolocation <https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Geolocation>. (Not a big argument: It also allows for better minification.)
