Perfectly right!

As any frameWork, Prototype does nothing more than wrapping native complexity into an handy interface.

  // prototype.js
  function bind(context) {
    if (arguments.length < 2 && Object.isUndefined(arguments[0])) return this;
    var __method = this, args = slice.call(arguments, 1);
    return function() {
      var a = merge(args, arguments);
      return __method.apply(context, a);
    }
  }

>Uhm, nothing in .bind() that doesn't already exist in JavaScript: The .call() and .apply() methods allow you to call a function in the context of the object passed. I don't see how that's different than what .bind() does.
