But why not put it on the web?

I probably will, at some point. I take my writing laptop out to nature a fair bit and would like the Obsidian links to still be present if I'm offline. I recognize there are other ways to do this though, local HTML file was simply the dumbest and simplest place to start.

You can make web apps work offline with service workers.

I use a bunch of web apps like that, like a notes app, and the great advantage is that you can open them from the addressbar.

Oh, very neat. Do you know if they do it with PWA or some other approach?

I made these apps myself, and I used SvelteKit, which has a page in the docs with some code you can copy-paste to make apps work offline: https://kit.svelte.dev/docs/service-workers
