I am serious. Yes, it's true it's easier than ever to create sophisticated websites. But it's also true that almost all this sophistication delivers negative value to users - it distracts them, slows them down, and forces them to keep buying faster hardware. It doesn't have to be like this - but it currently is. It's not even just a problem of explicit business incentives - the technical side of the industry has been compromised. The "best practices" in web development and user experience all deoptimize end-user ergonomy and productivity.
