If the status quo would work as great as alleged we wouldn't discuss the article as we just do... ;-) Modern browsers are completely crazy bloat-ware. Bigger by lines of code than most operating systems! Things like the JVM become small and lightweight compared to a modern browser. And still, it's not a "great application runtime" - as people still not even found out how to use it "properly" as one (as again: that's the point of the article we're discussing). That people everywhere do irrational stuff all the time is also no prove that anything of that stuff makes any sense at all. Things don't become smart only because there are more people out there doing the same thing. Actually the mass isn't doing the smartes things at all usually. So that's imho a quite bad benchmark for anything anyway. ;-)
