Wouldn't it be simpler to return a deferred promise here? Then the caller doesn't need to know about the inner workings between result/executing.

What's a deferred promise in this case?

Return a promise here, resolve it somewhere else later. (e.g. not within the promise func body)

That won't work because promises are eager and we don't want that promise to run at all, until the one that is already running is finished. Otherwise we're not debouncing anything. We're just running the functions one after the other.

Nevermind, that wouldn't help, because you need to dedupe higher up in the call stack.

We do prefer it, hence why we run it right after the current promise is finished
