I think that practical experience is biased. IE6/7/8 do not have any mecanism to define accessors. Lack of private properties forced to either put all properties as public for them to be used by prototype method or to duplicate methods at the base level. I personally do the latter, because I care about encapsulation. My practical experience in how I organise my objects is biaised by something missing in the language.
