Nitpick: "...and that HTML just wasn't going to get us there" (CSS came out in 1996).

  And CSS wasn’t widely used until a few years into the ‘00s. Only then did more consistent layout engines finally make it viable for stuff other than just styling text.

      Me too. But your comment surprised me as I remember hearing about this new thing "JavaScript" waaaaay earlier than about CSS. I didn't actually know they came out this close together.
