How many web developers understand that a low-end integrated GPU on a laptop can draw full 4k screens of pixels at 3000 frames per second?

And all the while the performance is absolutely horrible. So I don't think it's fair to say "the web has poor performance, but..." because there's nothing to put after the "but" that it actually does well, other than the reason it's here, which is that it's standard.

this is a tangent, but, unfortunately the sentence is usually: "the web has poor performance, but an astonishing percentage of that is due to business decisions (tracking etc.) outside of web developers control"

An empty screen sure. You can fill that even on the CPU. If you need to layout 2000+ nodes with many of those being text nodes, that need special layout conditions for different types of fonts and languages, it becomes a little more complicated. That's before you do any JS.
