Did I not day FALLBACK? Oh, I did but I am getting downvoted and mansplained for pointing that out a simple fact.
RAF also stops executing when tab is inactive. Sometimes we don't want our loop halted and that's where setTimeout comes in as the better alternative to setInterval.
This is the perfect example of why it says not to ask why you were downvoted in the FAQ, and the last time I try to help. You literally asked, I just tried to give a plausible explanation. Instead you rant back, scream and insult those literally answering your question. Not the right behavior for HN.
I provided a real world example that you haven't considered before.
Your condescending responses are hardly genuine attempts at finding a plausible explanation for me being downvoted by people who can't think that pointing out thing A is better than thing B even though thing C exists and is the correct approach most of the time.
