Not sure I understand the question.  If the internal shape is fixed from
birth (allocation-time), there is no way to allocate private slots
separately.

Are you suggesting that the DOM could define some magic way to dynamically
allocate private slots and supposedly hide that fact from the user?

Only if you consider object identity and "===" as meaningless : )

let el = document.createElement("foo-bar");
let Custom = class extends HTMLElement {
    private @x;
    initElement() { this.@x = 1; }
    getX() { return this.@x; }
};
try {
    Custom.prototype.getX.call(el); // throws a TypeError: no @x
} catch (x) {}
document.registerElement("foo-bar", Custom);
Custom.prototype.getX.call(el); // No type error, returns 1
