Ask HN: Why are some activation functions also chaotic maps?

[DeathArrow]

Today I was reading about dynamical systems and I've realized that some activation functions for neural networks, such as the logistic function [0], are also chaotic maps [1]. Is this just a coincidence or is there an advantage if an activation function is a chaotic map?

The logistic function and logistic map are two different functions that are only tangentially related.
