This can be useful if you're using a third party library that needs to convert to "plain" JS objects, such as with https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch-js/blob/master/src/lib/serializers/angular.js[angular.js]. Another helpful use case is in an advanced scenario where your application assembles queries dynamically. Using a stable stringify in that case ensures property order to prevent cache misses (as outlined in https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch-js/issues/695[GH Issue 695]).
