I think this is unfair criticism. Right at the top it says:
"Helix is the fastest way to launch new sites and deliver the fastest pages on the web, as a bonus it is also the most intuitive and fastest way to create and publish content."
That is what it is and that is why you would want to use it. It is a way to create new websites fast. And it promises that those websites will be fast, and you will be able to update them fast.
These are small and simple words.
- KerrAvon 4y ago1. Small and simple words *for a technical audience*, not C-suite know-nothings. An example might be something like “Generates HTML statically from Markdown documents in a Git repository with a built-in caching server with load balancing to edge servers for an additional fee” — whatever it actually does. Nowhere that I can easily find does it describe how it does what it claims. 2. Claiming to be “fastest” is usually a good way to get your ass handed to you.
