Answer 1

What impact does this have on your application? My guess is that it's just not great to see an error in the console.

The problem here is that you are seeing Firefox loggin this error and there's nothing you can do about it. It's not possible to capture this error with a try...catch block or via websocket.onerror/websocket.onclose.
