In my scenario an alternative (Rhino or PhantomJs) engine would generate a page once and then push that rendered page to the server. No real load would be sent to it. Single code path for all template rendering. Zero cross implementation bugs and the client still gets a fully reified page on first load.

Shit idea, lil harsh.

Shit idea is a little harsh for sure, but the problem is when your page relies on dynamic data and you can't prerender it. It's just too expensive to boot up a DOM on the server.

Why would you pre-render if your data is not changing continually? Don't you just have static content then?
