  unfortunately HTML didn't make any significant progress as a hypermedia for a decade and a half, but some folks (myself included) are trying to fix that (unpoly, htmx, hotwire, etc.) an enhanced hypermedia model offers a lot more interactivity often at a fraction of the complexity, and w/ the benefits of the REST-ful architecture (flexibility, etc.)
