More of a reminder to myself.

Since the dropping of IE11, we should be able to get along without using babel or any polyfills now. Need to check if we use object spread anywhere and test output across safari.

Should also no longer need autoprefixer since browsers switched to flag-based-trials instead of prefixes a while ago.
