I realize that. It seems like the entire blog post could be summarized as "I thought about doing something this way and when it didn't give me what I and everyone else expects out of a timer, my mental model adjusted to conclude that Apple was doing some weird gymnastics involving adding 500ms to some of their timer code and using Math.floor() but not to the time the timer actually goes off rather than adjusting my mental model to match the simpler way that humans expect rounding to work in a timer using [the equivalent of] Math.round()."
