There's no benefit to them doing it intentionally, so I'm not sure why you've scare-quoted.

How is there not? Worst case scenario it makes the app feel a bit more responsive since it's consistently less out of date.

How could this be a bug?

Sorry, I was referring to "accidentally" using background audio. They never tried to say that was accidental, the accident was that someone basically left an infinite loop and it vacuumed people's batteries. That's what I'm talking about when I say there's no benefit.

Now it's working as expected. It's not an accident and FB never claimed that.
