+            <a>BeforeInstallPromptEvent</a> (perhaps at different times or
+            under different circumstances). This is just a combination of the
+            previous two options. The automated prompt might look quite
+            different to the site-triggered prompt (e.g., being smaller or more
+            subtle). In this approach, using <a data-cite=
+            "DOM#dom-event-preventdefault"><code>preventDefault</code></a> on
+            the <a>BeforeInstallPromptEvent</a> would have no effect, since it
