> In every single example, the jQuery version is basically one or two lines of code, versus 10-15 lines for the alternative.

"Every single example?" Are we reading the same page? I was fairly surprised to find that 75% of the alternatives are literally one-liners. There are a handful that swell up to 10-15 lines of code, but I would say it's a very small portion, far from "every single example."

Also, most of the more complex examples have single-liner equivalents in modern browsers.

This page is just outdated. IE10 is a now deprecated browser whose last release was 4 years ago according to Wikipedia.
