Firstly: Too bad. The dysfunctional practices of corporate software development doesn't override people's right not to have their own computer's performance trashed by shitty websites. It's their right to run whatever browser they like, including one that doesn't allow slow, bloated and poorly engineered software to run, no matter how hard it makes life for the marketing departments of the world. Secondly: For decades computers operated with extreme limits on their available memory and their processing capacity, relative to today's computers. Despite this, people managed to write software, even including companies with marketing departments and idiot VPs. It might take these people a while to accept that they can no insist on pushing whatever garbage they want, because the cost is borne entirely by the end user, but eventually they will. Or they won't, and these dysfunctional companies will die out. Either way, users win.
