I agree. Why are projections more interesting/useful than other variations in behavior? Why are we supposed to treat them as not being variations? A projection-only abstraction would rule out tracing proxies, which most often don't change the behavior observed by code using the proxy in practice, but permit proxies that conditionally make a request throw, which surely will be. -j _______________________________________________ dev-tech-js-engine-internals mailing list dev-tech-js-engine-internals@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-tech-js-engine-internals
