The problem is that these older websites depended on lax HTML parsing behavior, which still exists but has since been standardized in extensive detail. It’s quite likely this site was already broken in other browsers, or even other versions of IE. And really, it’s not even broken now, the content does render. It’s just difficult to use. And it’s not as if there aren’t a slew of sites that render differently on Wayback for a variety of reasons. This is in no way meant to disparage the Internet Archive, but I don’t think it’s a reasonable expectation that a site hosted in a way it wasn’t set up by its creators will always accurately render the way it did in its original context.
