ALTERNATIVES ==>                  #  - require('timers/promises').setTimeout() (preferred if Node.js only)
                                  #  - delay (preferred if need browser support, or only wait for time)
                                  #  - AbortSignal.timeout() (preferred if timeout a specific function)
                                  #  - p-timeout (preferred if timeout a specific function, and cannot use AbortSignal)
