  • Bubblesort is theoretically faster than quicksort or mergesort for small arrays, making it useful in hybrid sorting strategies.
  • Bubblesort is beneficial in game development for rendering objects due to its fast individual steps and incremental ordering improvement.
  • Bubblesort can be used for animating particles sorting into a rainbow spectrum, though better methods may exist for smoother animations.
  • The article also mentions a Quanta article on metacomplexity theory and Petri net reachability, highlighting problems harder than NP-complete.
