Difference between findByIdAndRemove() and findByIdAndDelete()

JavaScript

Hello everyone!

I’m going through the MongoDB/Mongoose section right now, and in the Mongoose documentation I see two similar looking methods:

Model.findByIdAndRemove()
Model.findByIdAndDelete()

The documentation on them is fairly similar, with a little more written about findByIdAndRemove. Is there any reason to use one over the other that I just can’t see yet?
