(Unrelated but oops, I totally blanked on this, thanks for commenting since I’d forgotten.) I agree. If the sole value of Web IDL type descriptors was specifying conversions from ES,...

Regarding mutual exclusion/compatibility, here is what I _think_ is currently specified either directly or indirectly (i.e. there are some cases where it’s not explicit but can be deduced based on...

I'll try a first pass applicability table too. I think the key missing thing from the existing per construct list is distinguishing between whether e.g. they really just mean "regular...

While I think it would be great for Web IDL to change the type name, it may be worth noting that Web IDL already has the potential to confuse people...
