Since tc39/ecma262#1376, the dotted form of intrinsic notation is preferred.
Additionally, tc39/ecma262#2056 intends to remove these legacy intrinsics, once it is non-normative to do so. HTML has already been updated to no longer use them.
I did not delete the legacy ones from "conventions.html" yet, and I don't think that should happen until tc39/ecma262#1948 is resolved (otherwise, removing items from that table is normative).
