Because Double, Boolean can now be used to get raw primitive numbers and booleans as object references, the basic JS collections will work out of the box.
The Elemental1 collections had one additional benefit in the sense that there were pure-JRE implementations of interfaces. I don't think Elemental2 will have interfaces for Array and Map, so it might be worse exploring that, just so that someone can make JRE-only implementations incase they want to write utility code upstream that can run in either environment.
