I've written a lot of JavaScript and I've never seen it. The earlier IE 
JavaScript engines sucked mightily but all they ever did was slow the 
rendering to a crawl.

Our web application was Angular, which is all JavaScript, and if there was 
a problem it would show up in Firefox, but again it was only strange 
rendering. We always recommended Chrome or Edge after Edge became Chrome 
based.
