📖 Rule Details

This rule aims to enforce the use of Number.isFinite() instead of other checking ways.

Number.isFinite() is the preferred method for checking if a value is a finite number because:

• Type safety: Only returns true for actual finite numbers, not for strings that can be converted
• No type coercion: Unlike global isFinite(), it doesn't convert values to numbers first
• Clear semantics: Explicitly checks for finite numeric values
• Performance: Direct type and value checking without conversion overhead
• Consistency: Part of the modern Number API family
