I'd argue it's often an anti-feature.

These validation at input can be super annoying when you're copy-pasting your strings from other sources, and want to edit them in textbox in-place. Especially if you're on your phone.

I've be frustrated by this on numerous websites, a lot.



Another common failure case is only updating the validation state on key presses but not other content changes like auto fill.
