I'm aware of that, all I was saying is that hypothetically it would be possible to dismember the polymer components in separate pieces of javascript / css / html and replicate the behaviour in this way. I'm not sure why someone would want to do that, but just studying the implementation might be interesting to someone new. The paper-components seem very well designed.

In any case it does make way more sense than trying to replicate the design on your own and reinvent the wheel. Especially since there is nothing particularly creative in copying the design of someone else.
