I'll break down the provided benchmark and its options.

**Benchmark Overview**

The MeasurThat.net website allows users to create and run JavaScript microbenchmarks, comparing different approaches for various tasks. In this case, we have two individual test cases: "deep equals" and "greater than".

**Test Cases**

1. **Deep Equals**: This test case checks the performance of a deep equality check using a while loop.
```javascript
var n = 0;
while(true) {
    n++;
    if(n===100000)
        break;
}
```
In this case, we're incrementing `n` by 1 in each iteration and checking if it's equal to 100000. The test is designed to measure the performance of a deep equality check.

2. **Greater Than**: This test case checks the performance of a simple comparison using a while loop.
```javascript
var n = 0;
while(true) {
    n++;
    if(n>99999)
        break;
}
```
Here, we're incrementing `n` by 1 in each iteration and checking if it's greater than 99999. The test is designed to measure the performance of a simple comparison.

**Comparison Options**

In this benchmark, two options are compared:

1. **Deep Equals**: This option uses a deep equality check, which compares the entire object graph.
2. **Greater Than**: This option uses a simple comparison.

The pros and cons of these approaches are as follows:

* **Deep Equals**:
	+ Pros: Suitable for complex objects with nested properties.
	+ Cons: Can be slower due to the overhead of comparing the entire object graph.
* **Greater Than**:
	+ Pros: Faster and more lightweight than deep equality checks.
	+ Cons: May not work correctly for all use cases, especially when dealing with complex data structures.

**Libraries and Special JS Features**

Neither test case uses any libraries. However, they do utilize a special JavaScript feature: `===` (triple equals) which performs both value and reference equality checks.

**Other Alternatives**

If you were to implement these tests yourself, here are some alternatives:

* Use built-in methods like `Object.prototype.hasOwnProperty.call()` or `Array.prototype.every()` instead of deep equality checks.
* Utilize libraries like Lodash (`_.isEqual()`) for more advanced comparison logic.
* Consider using alternative data structures like Sets or Maps for faster lookups.

Keep in mind that the choice of approach depends on the specific requirements and use case of your application.
