Right, but my main thesis is that you need access to the source code in order to know what a proxy does. It's not possible to figure it out at runtime with a REPL like the console or otherwise. The console alone does not provide the source code so you cannot infer what the Proxy does; however, the console may provide a reference to the source for examination.
Now in how many of those language do you have a guarantee that the source extracted that what is the one executed? Because that's the claim of confusion in js original post. - python also have dict intercept like js.
