I do not want this to end in a sort of religious discussion, i want to collect some sources for further reading on this topic.

As shown here: Node.js Style and Structure Point 1: Avoid this and new

you can find a good example when it could be better to use closures instead of a prototype, and to make every argument explicit.

Ok, i agree - could be nice, but i need to know more. Can anyone recommend a good link?

Would this make my code 100% object-pattern-free ? (no factory-, repository-, module- pattern?)
