Realtime vs non-realtime interactions
It is important to distinguish between ‘state’ and ‘act.’ The state of something in UX is fundamentally static, like a design comp. The act of something in UX is fundamentally temporal, and motion based.

Non-realtime means that the object behavior is post-interactive: it occurs after a user action, and is transitional.
