 ```warn header="Don't change `[[Prototype]]` on existing objects if speed matters"
 Technically, we can get/set `[[Prototype]]` at any time. But usually we only set it once at the object creation time, and then do not modify: `rabbit` inherits from `animal`, and that is not going to change.
 
-And JavaScript engines are highly optimized to that. Changing a prototype "on-the-fly" with `Object.setPrototypeOf` or `obj.__proto__=` is a very slow operation, it breaks internal optimizations for object property access operations. So evade it unless you know what you're doing, or JavaScript speed totally doesn't matter for you.
