Isn't Object.create the proper alternative to both {__proto__: } and

why is that on the table all of a sudden?)
Object.create only creates "normal" objects, not arrays, functions,
dates, etc.
Same is true of `__proto__` in object literals.
The benefit of `__proto__` in literals is the succinctness of it. Using
`Object.create` to create new objects requires using descriptors which
are horribly verbose.
Circle.prototype = {
__proto__: Shape,
constructor: Circle,
/* etc. */
};
This becomes much less important with classes.
