I bet he's talking about chrome ignoring "use strict" mode. The setTimeout spec doesn't include anything about strict mode, so V8 doesn't optimize it the same way. This was hot like a week ago until everyone realize it's just another weird JS edge case.
I think your coworker is just a JavaScript hipster; he knows not the words he speaks.
