It's showmanship in that it's so nonstandard that it's theatrical. We shouldn't stigmatize that.
CSS can be non-superfluous in documents, like when formatting text or a table.
I'd like to focus on the fact that this required orders of magnitude less effort than designing a web site, and most importantly – the presentation did not suffer. There were no compromises to be made.
Some have mentioned that this lacks functionality, but I'm having a hard time imagining what that might be. Maybe mobile-readiness, in that it's preformatted. Considering that this is a Unix-y tool for power-users, I think it's ok to expect them to read this on a PC.
