What are the advantages and disadvantages between using WAIT or TICK and a timer script to, perchance, make an egg hatch?

WAIT makes the current script wait x ticks, TICK makes the timer script run every X ticks.
The advantage with TICK is that the waiting period won't be interrupted if another script gets called. So if a norn picks up an egg or drops it, and there is a drop or pickup script that gets called, the script currently WAITing would simply abort unless it was locked, while the Timer script would still fire on schedule.
