The truth is that the web is a shit GUI framework. It's slow, clunky, incredibly resource intensive, hard to make uniform, verbose to code. It's terrible.
The way the whole industry adopted it is understandable given the install base, but it's also probably a trillion dollar tax. I'd hate to see how much additional energy is used by billions of end-user devices running a rendering layer that is 100X heavier and more CPU intensive than anything native or TUI.
