I wonder how well this works in practice with a more complicated project. For example, if you have something that's usually sleeping but still needs access to wifi in order to send data and can also be woken up by another sensor in which case the loop isn't as simple. Throw in some threads running in parallel and it becomes much harder to manage. There are sleep modes that you can use for this but it's not as simple as this.
