It's a shame. HTML was originally meant to be quite device unaware, and display fine on toasters.

HTML is fine, it's the CSS/JavaScript that's the problem. If we were just displaying HTML we wouldn't be having this discussion.
It's more a matter of how the tools are used, and provisions for client side overrides. Reader mode is a godsend, though the delay on showing the icon and lack of a default option are both capital flaws.
I dunno, 90s era table layouts weren't exactly flexible either…
