v1.5.4
1/3/2025v1.5.4 updates the package version and refactors the shim implementation to use helper dependencies (get-proto, gopd, and es-errors) instead of direct built-in Object methods. The provided release notes contain no documented changes, so the actual behavioral and environment-compatibility impact is only visible from the diff.
v1.5.3
10/3/2024v1.5.3 primarily updates dependency versions and adjusts the RegExp.prototype.flags polyfill logic to avoid unnecessary polyfilling when native support is present. The release notes section provided to us is empty, and the changelog entry in the diff only broadly states the polyfill fix.
