Why does a debounced function return void?

lodash, as well as es-toolkit/compat, do not change the return signature of a debounced function. Was the change in es-toolkit intentional?

It returns void and this makes it incompatible with lodash, currently i'm unable to upgrade.

In what cases do you need to use the returned value?

@dayongkr something like this:

useEffect(() => {
	const debouncedRefetch = debounce(() => {
		return refetch(
			{ isMounted: true, search },
			{
				fetchPolicy: 'network-only',
			}
		)
	}, 400)
	const disposable = debouncedRefetch()
	return () => disposable?.dispose()
}, [refetch, search])
