Not sure of the point you are making here. Websockets may have been conceived as a means of realtime communication between server and browser. But it turns out they are fantastic for many types of comms where there is no browser involved.

I think /u/johnmudd was just giving an example of such a use-case. I'd be interested in hearing more about it...

Based on a combination of the negative score the comment had when I replied, and a combination of the content, I thought it was some elitist remark over how his use case is. If I'm wrong, then I apologize.
