Weird take. Web browsers are document display systems that got a bunch built on top of them. Old websites are just documents. Web browsers are meant to render them. New websites are a single html entry point that hands all website construction to JavaScript which then creates a fake document in memory for the web browser to render.
Which one is the convoluted, hard to implement and support one?
Example: NYTimes website is literally a giant document. It could be pure html and lose nothing by being rendered on the server side…except capitalism. So it can’t be a document because the NYTimes needs to extract a reliable and consistent money stream from people, which means it needs to be enforced (according to them) and thus JavaScript.
