Not sure that jQuery deserves to be blamed for shoddy interface coding. Any competent web developer knows that you always start out by designing your interfaces so that they work with scripts and plugins disabled [1]. If some - ok, most - devs choose to ignore this design principle then jQuery is hardly to blame. [1] Obviously there are situations when it simply isn't possible to create fully accessible solutions. Sometimes our hands are tied by management, tech stack requirements, etc.
