Re: [w3ctag/design-reviews] WG Revision: Web Speech API: SpeechRecognitionResult Timestamps (Issue #1267)

lolaodelola left a comment (w3ctag/design-reviews#1267)

Hi @alan33d,

Thank you for submitting this design review.

The only note I would make is that the Web IDL uses `double` for both the speech start and end times, we recommend `DOMHighResTimeStamp` as it allows for "comparison of timestamps, regardless of the user’s time settings" ([Web Platform Design Principle 8.4](https://www.w3.org/TR/design-principles/#times-and-dates)), if there's a valid reason that the `double` is being used then we defer to the authors' judgment.

This issue is marked with "Resolution: decline" to reflect that we didn't do a thorough review as the architectural impact is minor. If you feel that there is a bigger architectural impact than what we've mentioned, please reopen the issue.
