Comment on Music artist: "Why I prefer piracy to Spotify"

This is not about the article, but about the page itself: can someone explain to me why you would load all the content statically, hide everything through CSS, and then show it by Javascript? I mean, I realise that I'm an exception and that most people simply have Javascript enabled all the time, but isn't it simply bad design to take the worst of both the AJAX load-everything-dynamically and the static HTML full-page-reloads-at-every-click worlds?

It might be an overly-aggressive response to "Flash of uninitialized JS UI" www.kendoui.com/blogs/teamblog/posts/11-10-06/foujui_flash_of_uninitialized_javascript_ui.aspx
