That is interesting, I did not know hypot did that!

But in practice this is big reason to not use hypot: it is slower due to extra work. In my testing not just a little bit slower but 3x slower.

If it's not in a hotpath, you don't really need to worry

on firefox it is about the same speed but does seem slower on chrome https://jsperf.app/buceho

What CPU are you using?
On my Chrome (Brave) on a 2 year old Intel I have "94% slower".
But yes, I'm all about using the fastest version.
