≥ I think with the tools available today, everyone should just profile and optimize their app so they don't need to render it serverside.

Perhaps this is where the core problem lies. Have you considered, that this obsession to leave servers and to try to unload all the work to the clients is the wrong way (for most sites)?

1. Our pages are using a lot of server resources.

2. Let'a move some of the compute to the clients, so they can pay for it.

3. Oh, we are moving more and more JS to clients, it gets complex. Let's make big JS frameworks to help contain this complexity.

4. This is a shit-show, Frameworks cause all kinds of problems with developing, deployment, fixing, latency, instability, etc.

5. Let's optimize everything by caching on server and sending to the client ready html content! Arrived exactly where they started from.

Fyi. Ridiculously small font size makes you web site unreadable (on my phone, but I am sure this is a general problem).

It's ironic how similar of a "don't see forest from the trees" (voncentrating on the actually important stuff, Pareto) perpective problem you don't have...

What's the point of having a fast web site, if your choice of font sizes makes the content unreadable (or at least requiring effort, and straining the eye-sight and aggravating the reader)!..

Excel is a programming language, so there is not reason why the general programming issues solved by AI wouldn't also fully apply to the Excel code.

Excel is amazing. It is Turing complete and you can make literal games inside it. There are Excel mastery competitions/world chanpionships and you should check it out to understand what experts at Excel are capable of and why your answer did not impress. True Excel mastery is a totally different thing than fluency in Word/Powerpoint.

Unless people do any sort of semi-serious work in Excel. Nothing compares with Excel.

- Hey, can you please answer my questions? - No, I merely work here.

Yeah, there are people who think that they are being paid to be at work, not to do work, to apply themselves, to engage, to provide and produce. And it sucks to work with those kinds of people.
