Report: some DBW best practices should be "recommendations"

Some of our best practices are fairly new or subjective (single use event listeners, no Date.now()). Instead of listing all of these under “Best Practices”, it would be nice to have a new section of “Recommendations” or “Things to look at”.

The Date.now() audit in particular is pretty controversial, as a lot of its use is not for measuring durations but getting wall time. I would favor moving the date.now check out of the default config in the meantime.

Agree, Date.now() has many legitimate uses (it’s an easy way to grab the unix time, for date calculations).

Current:

Site does not use Date.now() in its own scripts

Suggestion:

Site does not use Date.now() to time page-loading (it’s alright to use it for time/date calculations).
