When you see things like Ember.Object.create() it's a clear sign to run, this isn't Java

You're not a fan of the way Ember's doing things? I'm a js intermediate trying to get deeper into the language, so (as you're a respected js guy) if you could expand on the comment then that would be awesome. Thanks.
I think the implication was rather that Java dudes would be uncomfortable working with a modern JS library, and here is one example of why. Normal people don't have to run.
Object.create() is not considered idiomatic JS rather than using the new operator.
