Isn't observable superseded by Proxy?

Most (all?) of what is enabled by observable should be possible with Proxy, right?

I guess Observable as in RxJS Observable (or the likes). Similar to Promise which is now part of the standard.

Good point although Proxy is pretty low level (for the JS world) and you still need to implement a lot of stuff yourself.

I would have expected something more akin to RXJS, MobX, or even the Svelte reactivity system.
