I already reported to the vendor.

1. I reported via IE's bug tracker system.
https://connect.microsoft.com/IE/feedback/details/794072/internet-explorer-animations-fails-on-120hz-computer-monitors-works-at-60hz-75hz-100hz?siteID=rGMTN56tf_w-1PqoBW8wrx7DKpzuXQ.Wbg
Microsoft closed this as "As Designed".

2. I have a back-and-fourth correspondence with Jatinder Mann (about 10
replies).
My interpretation was that it is a mis-interpretation of the W3C
recommendation.

The two main key issues appeared to be:
- "Battery/efficiency". This is not an issue, as there are no impact on
non-120Hz systems
- "No human-visible benefit" -- This is not correct, as this is an
assumption.

These are already mentioned in the W3C documentation, but my perception is
that this is incorrectly interpreted by one browser vendor, and thus a
standard modification is needed.

Sincerely,
Mark Rejhon
