No, your intuition is correct, this is extremely cursed.

Yeah, I guess “black tea” is a bit of a misnomer. It’s probably just simpler to share the terminology with coffee though

Coffee is just too bitter for me unless I overload it with way more cream and sugar than is healthy. At that point all the caffeine and sugar makes me way too jittery. On the other hand, I enjoy drinking tea black, so tea it is.

It’s honestly incredible that Bing even still exists, much less is still being actively being pushed by M$

Good to see they’re branching out with their business model. Can’t just commit to a single strategy these days. Sometimes it helps to rebase your priorities to avoid creating new issues.

A lot of the weird quirks of JS come from the desire to avoid completely blowing up and crashing as much as possible, which makes sense in a web dev context. Forcing weird operations to at least return something can prevent an unhandled error state in a single component from causing an entire page to crash, even if that component ends up malfunctioning as a result.
