Great! but the docs are on the offensive side: - "Yes, send me all your stupid updates" - "The new print modifier lets you style how your site should look when animals(in strikethrough) people print it."

When did playful become offensive?
Because by definition offensive has to do with how people receive something. I love the library, will continue using and donate, I would prefer the docs not to assume that people that print papers are animals. That's all! Take it or leave it.
But people are animals. Apes, to be specific.
i read that as sarcasm delivering a subtle critique on digital consumption in 2021 and how print has been killed by digital media (for most folks). obviously they acknowledge that people still want to read in print, otherwise, why would they bother to add this feature?

maybe i'm reading into it too much, but i don't think they think print readers are inferior.

They are.
Well it's not like they're expecting people to pay for...oh $279 for the UI kit eh?
