"That sounds like server load, more than anything on the client side."
You are missing the point: with a normal page, server load looks like server load, whereas with "dynamic" tricks server load looks like a defective page and what you see cannot be considered the true content of the page.

If it doesn't actually do this here then that's silly, but that's a problem with the implementation, not the concept. I'm seeing more and more apps that perform potentially long-running tasks (usually involving network access) without any indication that anything is happening. It's frustrating.
