When the object meta APIs were specified, there was little support for the dunder APIs, which made it easier to kill them. Since then, __proto__ implementation has spread, which means it's _not_ easy to kill—which is why it's being standardized. Note that TC39 isn't specifying two different mechanisms either, ie. no setPrototypeOf. Rick
