Both are used for secondary loops, the former is just a bit more sane<br>
than the latter, but under the hood they're pretty much the exact same<br>
thing.<br>
<br>
If the developer needs to alter the main loop, they should be using<br>
the pre_get_posts action, not overwriting the query with something<br>
else. It would also help if you provided a link to the ticket.<br>
