I think I actually like what they are doing. They're using a combination of Stimulus and HTMX, which I think is a more valid approach than the approach that Hey (the email and calendars site) and many others take, where practically every interaction streams HTML over the wire as opposed to what David and his team are doing where it gets the information on page load so that you arent waiting around for content to come over the wire. I think this approach is how HTMX should be used, but it often is used in a similar fashion to how Hey works, and I think that's the major flaw, take what I say with a grain of salt, but I dont think HTMX pushes the idea that you should preload stuff very well.
