| 13:49 | <Ashley Claymore> | I see the current R&T specification as the result of exploring what it looks like to include composite types within the set of types that work with the existing equality procedures in the language: ===, ==, Object.is, switch(){}, indexOf, Array contains, Map has, Set has, and validation checks within Object.defineProperty.The benefit of that is compatibility with existing libraries, and so people can keep using the APIs they are either already familiar with, or already likely to learn at some point. |
| 13:54 | <Ashley Claymore> | As mentioned in the last plenary, the R&T champions are taking the feedback received for the current spec and exploring alternatives designs so we can compare and contrast. Echoing Dan's request, if there are alternative ideas for how R&T could work if a high-level gist could be written up and/or a GH issue raised that would be super helpful for us to reference in our chats. |
