Video feels like clickbait.

Appeals to people who are:

1. Frustrated with the complexity/brittleness of javascript tooling

2. Still learning (oooo, shortcut?)

3. Pining for the good ol' days (conveniently forget ie6)

A better, more realistic talk might have been "how to make a fast, responsive, mobile-friendly site without javascript and here are some new browser features to look forward to" but I'm sure that would have got a lot less clicks.
