the so-called liberal “rights of man” 

under socialism, these weights would be reversed, and designers would be mandated to facilitate the participation of ALL persons in society

the so-called liberal “rights of man” 

it is no surprise that freedom of speech (a private, egoistic concern) has trumped the right to hire a designer for your wedding (a concern primarily of participation in broader society); this is the expected outcome of liberalism

the so-called liberal “rights of man” 

remember that « none of the so‐called rights of men goes beyond the egoistic man, the man withdrawn into himself, his private interest and his private choice, and separated from the community as a member of civil society.  Far from viewing man here in his species‐being, his species‐life itself—society—rather appears to be an external framework for the individual, limiting his original independence. The only bond between men is natural necessity, need and private interest, the maintenance of their property and egoistic persons. »

i mean i do :—

const getDataViewBuffer =
Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor(
DataView.prototype,
"buffer",
).get;

// later…

const buffer = Reflect.apply(
getDataViewBuffer,
myDataView,
[],
);

—: and that’s not even a weird edge case really that’s just a normal feature of the language

but i feel like most developers would look at that, say “it is not obvious to me what is happening here”, and move on rather than try learning

the other problem is that while i try not to make my code incomprehensible to people who are willing to learn about niche uses for edge cases in the ecmascript spec, it definitely is incomprehensible to the sort of person who has no interest in ever learning stuff like that
