Hi Boris, not the first time I read your comments about this. I have two questions:
1. why is that? the most annoying warning ever in Firefox. There is a spec'd method that is not even on Annex B and Firefox deliberately discourage its usage. Why I don't see warnings every time I `[].slice.call(arguments)`? I understand it might de-optimize but I wonder if that's really always necessary (maybe it doesn't have to deopt if it's a well known operation with a predictable result). On the other side, I also wish Firefox woudn't show warnings about modern and recent specifications. Deprecated stuff is OK, opinionated and "not reasoned so well on console" warnings are ... yak?! 2. where were you when the `__proto__` landed on specs? :P Thanks for any clarification.
