I keep reading this article and it keeps infuriating me. Fuck what a dumb proposal. I love encapsulation and the idea of private fields is GREAT. Not like this though, I'd rather not have private fields than this. This is a language feature that will get JS on a path to having a "JS, a fractal of bad design" written about it.

Thanks, I'm gonna need it. Hopefully Typescript will make it so I never have to see this directly. T_T
