To me, I think this is where HTML standards went off the rails.

Rather than working on, say, the vibration API, give us built in web components that are stylable but also accessible by default.

In 2024, half of the things in Bootstrap or Tailwind UI should be obsolete. Where's our OOTB carousel, date picker, rich drop-down with icon/subtext, form elements supporting AJAX state, modal windows? etc etc.

All of these things should be as foolproof as an unordered list for devs to implement & the quality of websites in terms of performance & accessibility would be lifted massively
