Why doesn't it do that? I thought that was the point of using Chrome as a headless browser to load all the dynamic elements into a final DOM so they could then be captured & serialized out: "ArchiveBox works by rendering the pages in a headless browser, then saving all the requests and fully loaded pages in multiple redundant common formats (HTML, PDF, PNG, WARC) that will last long after the original content dissapears off the internet."
