Wanting to know how the things "should be" ticking instead of how things
really are ticking has always been the only thing I found ECMA 262 good
for. The release of a newer setter of browsers that may or may not make
it obsolete doesn't matter. It is still only a theory of how things
should be instead of a true indication of how things really are.
