Aside from performance, the operator also leads to denser code which is easier
to write. Talking to my colleagues, I was told that two of them could have used
it already this morning!

That's not likely to make any serious performance difference with an ajax call.
And in tight loops, I try avoid conditionals and object creation anyways, to
avoid branch prediction fails (in both the engine and CPU) and costly
allocation. (Most engines only do a limited form of pooling for faster GC.)

I'd imagine that from an engine point of view, this means that fewer
object shapes land in memory, at least for v8.
Reducing the number of object shapes currently boils down to using an
object literal and setting the properties to `value || null` instead of
extending the object with new properties imperatively.
