Symbol is not a class. From: es-discuss [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of /#!/JoePea Sent: Sunday, August 14, 2016 18:31 To: es-discuss <[email protected]> Subject: Why ES6 introduced classes yet `Symbol` not to be used with `new`?
It seems like `new Symbol()` would be inline with the introduction of classes. Why was it chosen not to be constructible? Seems like it would make sense to throw an error on `Symbol()` but not `new Symbol()`. Was it to save three characters of typing? /#!/JoePea
