The comments in this article are embarrassing. It shows none of you have even basic reading comprehension. Either you didn't read the article at all or not very carefully:
"So, instead, we have an hour-long technical discussion where I ask them questions about web vitals, accessibility, the browser wars, and other similar topics about the web. One of the questions I always like to ask is..."
It's ONE of the questions, so those concluding it's a terrible interview altogether are dramatizing.
As for the question being relevant or not, I think it actually does say a lot about a developer. Just those few lines of code show historic knowledge, internationalization, SEO and social networks, mobile optimization, CSS normalization, and bleeding edge features (origin-trial).
In that sense it's an effective question. You learn a lot about someone with little code, even if the understanding of some individual lines is not a showstopper.
Finally, saying that your framework usually generates this for you isn't the great answer you think it is.
