agreed. Actually browsers can help in this direction by incorporating a lot of the javascript UI elements into HTML. Most websites look the same anyways nowadays, optimized for mobile, rounded corner buttons, the same animations over and over. Web UI should be enough to replace all the apps in your phone nowadays

Unfortunately, none of the browsers want to or can do that. Chrome is mostly interested in fire and motion, and the other browsers can only do so much to keep up with it.

And while attempts like https://open-ui.org/ are admirable, we'll never see it in the browser.
