I had to scroll down to the bottom to understand what Qwik was, because it suddenly compares it with react, and I know what react is.

“Framework reimagined for the edge”

that does not tell me anything about what Qwik is. It’s not even a proper sentence, is it? A framework for what? Is it software? A methodology? Some device? No clue.

I understand the sentence. My guess is this page is targeting people who understand and need what it is selling. It’s probably not ready for mainstream, so maybe that’s why they use that language? Just a bunch.
If I'm in a meeting where someone suggests using opaque technical language to deliberately reduce reach... I'm voting that down :)

Use simple language that everyone understands. You might gain some converts.
