--- Comment #1 from Dominic Cooney <dominicc@chromium.org> ---
I don't think we should make this change. I don't think there is anything new
in this bug report that wasn't already considered.

IIRC we ended up with the lassez-faire model we have today because it is
simpler,  more flexible, it reflects what you can do today with __proto__
twiddling, it doesn't afford the UA any real protection or benefits because you
can always reset the prototype later anyway, and it might have valid (though
marginal) uses.

>From the implementation's point of view this is not a huge deal, we would just
need to scrabble over the prototype more.
