The point is to take JS implemented features and make them native to the browser.

That's a terrible point.
Not at all. The existence of general purpose scripting isn't and shouldn’t be at odds with equipping HTML to handle a few very common, very basic tasks without JS. There’s plenty to be gained by doing so, including better ergonomics and efficiency. Even heavy JS apps stand to benefit since it’s that much less code to have to write and maintain.
