Isn’t this what read mode is supposed to be for?

Reader view is (to my understanding) a heuristic that gives you the biggest wall of text of the article. If it works, it is nice. But in these cases you can usually also c&p.

However, it does not work if what you want to save is not a wall of text. Some table, some receipt, etc. It does not work for the Google search box, for facebook, or Amazon, just to give an example.
