...and so we see endless re-invention of the same components, over and over, without any real connection to markup.

Which from the markup perspective means we don't actually learn much about user needs. Crawlers don't see them.

So there might be universes being born and dying out in JS land, but the markup world doesn't think of them as "their problem".

Web Components -- incl AMP vocabulary -- begin to force the question. If something really *is* common & we can prove it, why not standard?

Obviously the form of the built-in will change vs. whatever's in AMP or any other library, but now that's an argument for data to help solve

So this isn't so much "bizzaro HTML" as it is what we were doing anyway out in script, but exposed to markup, which helps us learn faster

I think maybe it feels bizzaro because the ecosystem isn't shifting towards markup like this but closer to script instead.

That is a very JS-centric view; one that lives in a JS echo-chamber. Nearly all content that's searchable is produced in markup format.

Web Components try to heal the rift; to enable us to continue to describe the structure of our apps in markup while making them in script

The "we're just gonna do everything in script" camp is also costing businesses tons in terms of interop friction. Every hill a mountain.

Welp, we're just the vessel for everyone else, so I see those trends. /shrug.

Not saying they aren't real, just noting that the JS-first way of programming is really, really slow and will cost us all in the long-run.
