> FRP "events" are kind of like the kind of signals being discussed here, but there are still big differences.

I don't think the differences are that significant, JS signals are basically `latch(frp-event-stream)`, eg. FRP events yield edge-triggered systems and JS signals yield level-triggered systems, and latches transform edge-triggered to level triggered.

I understand why people can see JS signals as FRP behaviours though, as both have defined values at all times t, but the evaluation model is more like FRP events (push-based reactivity), so I think edge vs. level triggered is the real difference, and these are interconvertible without loss of information.

IIRC, the FRP literature calls both of them "signals" as a general category, just two different types.
