That’s at a weird intersection between HTML5 and ECMAScript, (...)
I think it's more historical than anything. The event loop,
setTimeout/Interval (and promises) belong to the language (ECMAScript),
not to a library (HTML5) in my opinion.
ECMAScript 1-5 were concurrency-neutral. A pure ES5 programs has a start
and an end and that's it. No concurrency whatsoever.
ES6 is going in that direction too.
ES7 opens a breach to event loop concurrency with async observers
(object.observe)
