I step upon a weirdness exploring oriented object programming in JS.
In Python, I often use the following constructions:

Translating in js we got:

Reading the doc, I understood that JS is initializing fields after the super is called. Hence, fields and methods behave differently with respect to inheritance.
The "correct" way to translate the Python code seems then to wrap the fields into a getter which gives actually the following:

I wonder why JS is implementing such a semantic for fields. It sounds hacky to and feels like field shouldn't be mixed with inheritance at all but maybe I have overlooked something?
