Commercial site, personal blog, social media &c yes, of course, you are right

Sites people use to access vital services: you should be designing Web sites that will work on old broken devices on slow connections. 2‰ of 30 million is 60 000, a stadium full.

... also the original article said 1%, so that's really 300 000.

the 0.2% was just the deliberate disabling. The rest were all the stuff documented here:

It reduces the workload. Using htmx + tailwindcss means to me I could duplicate all the functionality of a eCommerce backend in mere a week for something that I was, unfinished, doing in vue for almost a year.

And after that?

ZERO EXTRA WORK.
