Why doesn't MDN's `Object.create` polyfill set `prototype.constructor`?

Question

Considering MDN's Object.create polyfill:

if (typeof Object.create != 'function') {
  (function () {
    var F = function () {};
    Object.create = function (o) {
      if (arguments.length > 1) { throw Error('Second argument not supported');}
      if (o === null) { throw Error('Cannot set a null [[Prototype]]');}
      if (typeof o != 'object') { throw TypeError('Argument must be an object');}
      F.prototype = o;
      return new F();
    };
  })();
}

Focusing particularly on these two lines:

F.prototype = o;
return new F();

I was wondering, why isn't it appropriate to set F.prototype.constructor = F;?

F.prototype = o;
F.prototype.constructor = F;  // why not?
return new F();

I was wondering, why isn't it appropriate to set F.prototype.constructor = F;?

F is a temporary function, and it seems intentional that there is no way to reference it from outside Object.create.
