I find it entertaining that you post this a within 24 hours of the linus/tanenbaum rehash.

Getting crap done counts for a lot. Web, and hci in general, isnt figured out well at all, so we can spend a few decades pursuing an ideal we don't even have defined...or we can get stuff done.

If you are arguing for some specific non-"idiocy", please, explain why your version hasn't taken off.

Do you have a link about this latest rehash? I tried googling without success

Sorry for the late reply - the article is old, but the HN link (and comments) is recent: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17294907
