There's an invisible triangle in the menus you use every day. Hover a category and its submenu opens. Now reach for the submenu. Your hand takes the shortest path, a diagonal. But that diagonal crosses the item below and the menu switches again and again.
So designers draw a triangle from your cursor to the edges of the submenu. While you move inside it, the menu knows where you're headed and stays open. Step outside and it reacts instantly. You'll never see it. You'll just never get annoyed. Small details. Big difference.
Small details. Big difference.
