This comment shows that you are indeed "not-a-web-dev". It sounds alien to you because you don't understand the web.
TTFB means Time To First Byte, which is important in web since this is when anything meaningful can start to happen for the user. Having the markup as static on the edge means that you aren't hitting a db or a traditional server that will render your markup, allowing your users to gain the benefits of a CDN, including edge caching. This maximizes availability because your app is being served globally, and TTFB is predictable instead of chaotic during times of high load. This method transcends servers by making your app available from "every" edge server.
