Important note: do not perform tests with WeakRefs in dev tools. Your objects won't be GCed in it due to DevTools specific behaviour. Instead, use jsbin, codesandbox, runkit or perform tests in Node.js. Localhost is okay when you open files using http:// protocol, as file:// also has specific behaviour.
