We need to stop pushing so much logic in web pages.
They should just display stuff, not run silly animations or do calculations in the background.

There is no "logic" here.

Plato's Callicles would tell you that this is idealistic nonsense and nature has shown us that we need beautiful pages that drive engagement.
Humans teach each other that Socrates is right, but if we look around us, its clear we've been told a lie.
