I feel like the concepts are being abused here. Prototypical — at least in my understanding — refers to a mechanism of inheritance or delegation, and not as Crockford uses the term to the way you build your objects. Confusingly, JavaScript didn't even have prototypical inheritance until relatively recently, because even though every object had a prototype, it couldn't be set or changed on an individual basis, but was determined solely by which Constructor (read: Class) that created it, which made JavaScript's inheritance mechanism essentially indistinguishable from the classical, albeit with more obscure nomenclature.
