Fastest Front End Tooling for Humans and AI
I take it you've never suggested to a front-end dev that maybe their contact form doesn't need a 1MB+ of JavaScript framework and could just be HTML that submits to a backend.

Live-form validation? Auto-complete? Any of these ringing a bell?
It's almost like there are genuine UX improvements being done

You know that pure HTML have it ? and if you need a more complex validation, a few lines of js does the magic. Same if you need live autocomplet.

Good point, HTML with no JavaScript at all has pretty good validation built in now. Try entering an incomplete email address on this demo page:

That should be a few dozen lines of vanilla JavaScript.
