Maybe I'm just getting old, but Javascript jumped the shark at some point. Hydration, lazy loading, managing flashes of unstyled content, a lot of this is built to address things that wouldn't be problems if we treated the browser as the dojo that it is and not be so dang wasteful.

im sure someone with shinier boots than mine will pop in and tell me how im wrong, and perhaps youre right, but the web was a much better place without all the toolchain and shenanigans. We must return to fundamentals.
