> instead of exclusively focusing on making them easier to use or more performant, they are constantly adding features

I appreciate that this is mostly just a generic rant, but it's not really suitable here, because this is a feature which is being added with the sole goal of improved performance.

There's only so much you can to optimize the extremely dynamic regular objects in JS, and there's no hope of using them for shared-memory multithreading. The purpose of this proposal is to have a less dynamic kind of object which can be made more performant and which can be made suitable for shared-memory multithreading.
