This SO thread [0] on the subject is interesting as well. I suspect this really has no harmful consequences, most browsers have a max iframe depth, although I don’t know how it varies.

- tylerhou 6y agoI can “crash” a tab by running an infinite JS loop, or sending a bunch of data. Crashing doesn’t seem like a big deal.
- olliej 6y agoIt’s much less of a problem now that all browsers are running each tab in a separate process. It used to be so much worse.
