Description

### Operating System

Windows 10/11 latest (and probably all others)

### Browser Version

Chrome/Edge latest (and probably all others)

### Firebase SDK Version

10.4.0 (probably all down to 9.22)

### Firebase SDK Product:

Firestore

### Describe your project's tooling

Angular via nx and esbuild

### Describe the problem

You declare that users disabling experimentalAutoDetectLongPolling should report it as a bug and describe why in the docs, and I currently do that.... I have no issues with it, except that in my scenario it seems to often fallback to longPolling unnecessary. This is probably due to me disabling/enabling network on visibilitychange, to make all platforms (ios/windows/android) behave the same way, and limit network traffic... This works fine, except for the fallback to longPolling sometimes, so I guess me enabling/disabling network is interfering with the logic for detecting a buffering proxy...

### Steps and code to reproduce issue

disable/enable network often and observer traffic in devtools...
