Sorry, I misunderstood which isNaN you were talking about. The global isNaN has unexpected behavior in certain edge cases[1], so that's probably why the library author chose to avoid it. Number.isNaN doesn't have that behavior, but is not supported in IE. I agree most people these days should just use Number.isNaN, assuming they don't need to support IE.
