Research direction
Start by locating the React Native structuredClone polyfill and reproduce the issue with a sparse array such as new Array(3) with only index 1 populated. Verify that the clone preserves the source length and trailing holes, matching Node's native structuredClone behavior.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
Description
The React Native structuredClone polyfill initializes an array clone as [] and only assigns enumerable keys. If a sparse array's highest populated index precedes its declared length, the trailing holes are lost and the clone is silently shortened. For example, new Array(3) with only index 1 populated becomes length 2.
Expected behavior
The clone should preserve the source array's declared length and holes. Node's native structuredClone follows this behavior.
