I'm really surprised about the (thus-far) universal acclaim of the design. There's usually a lot of knee-jerk reaction against fancy browser effects like parallax and scroll-jacking in this crowd. I think this implementation is mostly excellent, but as a web craftsmen, it would have been a fun/entertaining challenge to make a good non-javascript implementation underneath.

most of the reaction against scrolljacking is because when the content of the site is text, we have expectations about how it should behave and we know how we want to interact with it, so we get angry when we can't. when the content is 3D renders, most people have no strong expectations about how the controls should work and aren't going to have a negative reaction as long as the implementation works well.
