I've updated my post to mention your polyfill. But I feel like the biggest “selling point” for using the dialog element is its ease of use. Personally, if I have to install a npm package and then register DOM elements, I would rather create my own modal with CSS or install a npm package like vue/react-modal if I am using a framework.
Thank you for your comment!😃

Sure, but
dialogis only supported in Chrome, so in my opinion it's unreasonable to ship it without a polyfill.I appreciate your argument, but I think it implies that you should always just create your own modal and not use the built-in one :)
Yes, in the current state of adoption, your polyfill is the only way to use the
dialogelement in production.And if a developer uses React or Vue, he/she can easily overcome the polyfill's major limitation (stacking context) by using portals. ✌️
