"but this was apparently already used by Mootools so they used includes"
serious question... does anyone even use mootools at this point in time to even consider this? seems like more and more people are going leaving jquery for vanilla javascript everyday, so i have to conclude that jquery itself will eventually run it's course, like prototype did, and die off, but i would have thought that mootools died long ago.

- cpeterso 9y agoOld sites using old versions of Mootools might never be updated. Even if Mootools fixed their feature detection of contains() and flatten(), old Mootools versions will still be floating around on real sites forever.
