Cocoa seems to be using the triangle technique + a delay, FWIW: a submenu will close instantly when navigating vertically or to the opposite direction, but there is a lot of leeway when navigating in the triangle towards the submenu (eyeballing it, seems to take more than half a second for the submenu to close). And interestingly, you can also "overshoot" the submenu, it will delay its closing quite a bit when moving around/outside of it.

Per TFA: "... when you try to move your mouse from the main menu to the submenu, the submenu will disappear out from under you like some sort of sick, unwinnable game of whack-a-mole."
