Research direction
Review the existing polyfills linked in the issue (benlesh/event target polyfill and mattkrick/event target polyfill) for reference. Study the EventTarget specification to understand required methods (addEventListener, removeEventListener, dispatchEvent). Look at core js's existing polyfill structure (e.g., in packages/core js/modules) to follow conventions. Check comments for any maintainer suggestions or scope clarifications.
