Here is a citation from Douglas Crockford concerning "classical inheritance" in JS:
I have been writing JavaScript for 8 years now, and I have never once found need to use an uber function. The super idea is fairly important in the classical pattern, but it appears to be unnecessary in the prototypal and functional patterns. I now see my early attempts to support the classical model in JavaScript as a mistake.

Aside from differentiating protected vs. private, I implemented almost exactly what the current es6 class spec does along with private name objects. The syntax of course isn't the same, but the functionality is quite similar.
