The predominant desktop situation is relatively straightforward: Browsers handle links, and non-browsers defer loading http and https URLs to the system, which in turn invokes the default browser. Instead, they load content referred by their hosting native app in system-provided WebViews. Hardware access APIs, notably: Geolocation.

To attempt to apply strict in-order processing would be to impose artificial limitations on our system. That's because to guarantee message ordering is technically very difficult and, even if successful, always comes with tradeoffs like lower message throughput and less scalability that hamper the system's ability to be successful.
