> Your site displays a blank page without running javascript. You are a long way off from efficient or super minimal.

This seems like a non sequitur to me. What does javascript have to do with efficiency or minimalism?

Not running JS is both more efficient and more minimal than running JS, and so like the parent is saying, doing all that just to display a blank page without JS is kind of ironic.
Not running CSS and HTML is even more efficient. How can you call your website efficient if it isn’t just plain text served over TCP?
Yes, plain text would be even better. It's not a gotcha if I agree with your sarcastic comment unironically.
