        last point because meh If HTML and CSS (or even JS) don't work for *your context*, it's not a reason to try and replace them with a brand new solution. The three pillars work for the *vast majority of the web*, so the sensible thing is the funnel effort into an abstraction. 1/2

          Big companies do this all of the time (thinking of the LinkedIn CSS thing from a few years back here) and it's fine. What they don't do is try to make that a web standard because they know it really probably only works for them. Open source this stuff: hell yep. 2/2

            sorry actual last point because this is important: defacing the document was a dick move. don't be a dick and do stuff like that, pals.
