Why use active dry yeast instead of instant

If it’s not, you might still be okay as long as your liquid ingredients weren’t cold. Activating the yeast is actually just done to ensure that the yeast is in fact still alive (and to give it a bit of a harder “shell”, i.e. it won’t die just because the ingredients are too cold or hot as easily).
