Great satire but let's create that same for combobox with server side filtering. Now you have problem because it's not possible with native HTML elements. Many re-implementations are result of missing native elements.
<input type="button"> ?
So a button big bang. Born the Light (Minimalist) and Dark patterns
I love how this clearly satirical piece unfortunately is how a lot of websites operate.
It's also very educational. Having used mostly frameworks or raw html5 with HTMX I stood not know most of the things that page talked about.
