If it makes it into the language, I'd rather see `Function.delay(timeout, callback)` or, even better, `Promise.delay(timeout).then(callback)`. The latter would also fit better with modern ES standard language APIs, IMHO. The latter has already been suggested here before, plenty of times, but AFAICT, it's relatively low priority.
Beyond that, I agree that changing `setTimeout` is out of scope here.
