On the other hand, if they're completely different from a template language it seems like it should be just a moments work to demonstrate why, and help a fellow professional understand what they're missing.

Well um

1) You dont have to load an external library

2) Shadow DOM

3) Dynamic slots

That’s about it, honestly LOL.

I guess the main point of most browser APIs was to let apps use browser features.

This one actually tried to make a standard way for apps to use other apps. But they already had their own libraries so nyeh, thank you very much! LOL

Now I'm curious, what template engines don't have dynamic slots? Is that actually a rare enough feature to declare webcomponents special for having it? Does webcomponents have an advanced version of it?
