 - Object properties can be added, removed and modified (not prevented with
   `Object.defineProperty()`, `Object.defineProperties()`, `Object.freeze()`,
   `Object.preventExtensions()` or `Object.seal()`).
+- Earlier versions of JavaScript will throw `SyntaxError` with the following:
+  ```js
+  ({
+    p: 42,
+    get p() {},
+  });
+  // SyntaxError: Object literal may not have data and accessor property with
+  //              the same name
+  ```
+  UglifyJS may modify the input which in turn may suppress those errors.
 - Iteration order of keys over an object which contains spread syntax in later
   versions of Chrome and Node.js may be altered.
 - When `toplevel` is enabled, UglifyJS effectively assumes input code is wrapped
