  - **"Abort these steps" vs "return"**: Use "return" to exit a whole algorithm or method. Use "abort these steps" to terminate a set of substeps or [in parallel](https://html.spec.whatwg.org/C#in-parallel) steps and continue at the next step in the "outer" procedure. See examples in [this section on parallelism](https://html.spec.whatwg.org/C#parallelism) and elsewhere throughout the spec, as well as https://github.com/whatwg/infra/issues/258.
  - **Usage of positional, optional, and named[^1] (i.e., linkable) parameters**. Follow the [algorithm parameter conventions](https://infra.spec.whatwg.org/#algorithm-params) in the Infra Standard. In particular, use named/linkable optional parameters in your algorithm declaration when callsites pass in values for them while omitting earlier-positioned optional parameters.
