There is already a way to workaround like this in ES5.1 to ensure constructor
are called as expected```jsfunction packAsConstructor(construct){ 'use
strict'; return function(){ if(this===undefined)throw Error('Invalid
call as non-constructor'); if(construct.prototype)
Object.setPrototypeOf(this, construct.prototype); return
construct.apply(this, arguments); }.bind(undefined);}```
But this is not the core of the problem. The problem is the Proxy introduced in
ES6 enables an object to capture and override almost any operation on an
object. Without operation on object, it becomes very costly (by using an Array
of created objects and compare each of them) to identify whether a object is
faked or valid. _______________________________________________
