When I used it, I really wished it used JS inheritance rather than its own custom inheritance/mixins.



JavaScript inheritance wasn't really a thing when Leaflet started out, and definitely not widely-supported (is it even now?).


Last I checked, IE11 is the last official holdout (with bugfixes and support) and it has less than 5% marketshare. That gives ES6 somewhere close to 95% marketshare for users that aren't running 3-6 year old insecure and outdated browsers.
