You say no one wants that, then you describe doing exactly that.

If your “app” runs in a browser window—a window presented by a browser engine—it’s fundamentally a web page. (They’re two distinct words.)

I .. hate those pedantic discussions. But here you go: a web page by common understanding is mainly something to look at. Page implies document. A web app is a bit more. (And many tech people hate it, that browsers can do more)

So no, I do not want to replace native code with a web page. But in some cases with web apps.
