For those who were not subscribed to public-webapps when that thread went down, here is the most convincing message:

I was previously in favor of keeping things simpler by just doing ArrayBuffer, as it feels more right to have APIs accept the “underlying buffer” instead of “just a view,” but that message changed my mind by giving a practical argument why that is not tenable.

For XHR.send(), we've finally chosen to accept only ArrayBufferView.

Do we want to do the same for FetchBody body of RequestInit?
