So, importantly, only one of the two existing commonly used tests for 
'objectness' will continue to work correctly in the face of value objects. The 
first being a test that typeof is "object" or "function" that's not null, will 
continue to work. The second `Object(value) === value` would no longer work 
because a value object will return itself from `Object`.
