Why should every website have the same UI?

I'm tired of the same discussion again and again on HN. Javascript bad. Anything but #000 text on #fff bad. CSS and animations?! Fuggedaboutit. If it's not free range, handcrafted HTML, I don't want it anywhere near my 5950X.

Not every website is the same and this is not the best way to present statistical data. It pays to keep things simple and cohesive when you're trying to explain what a big block of numbers or a graph with bars/lines represents.

After all, your goal is to make sure the viewer understands the information being shown, not impressing them with moving text.
