Usually, not adhering to timing recommendations isn't going to damage a circuit. However, it introduces potentially undefined or unpredictable behavior. For example, if you are driving a pump with specific timing requirements to control precisely the amount of fluid passed and you skew the timing a bit. Most of the time it would probably be fine, but there would be the potential that it might pump too much or too little. For a low precision application like a sump that's ok, but for a high precision application like an medication pump it has the potential to kill someone.

At the end of the day, it depends on your tolerance for risk. Manufacturers generally certify their products for the timing on their datasheets. If you operate out of those specs, you are taking the responsibility of what happens.

Don't want to scare anyone off, but it all depends on what you're doing with it. In personal projects, yeah I'll do all kinds of squirrely out of spec shit, but I'd never do that at work cause of potential liability. It's up to you to determine if losing a couple steps on your watering pump will kill anybody or not! :D

At least one of the big 3 isn't meeting production demand due to battery assembly. Long series of management and integrator fuck ups where their solution seems to be just throw more engineers at it. Can't build EVs if they can't build batteries.

I got a Litter Robot 3 a couple years ago and its the best money I've spent in a long while. Super convenient and I haven't had any issues with it even with 2 cats.
