JS doesn't make the web less accessible. You can choose to make your web apps using JS just as accessible as plain-old HTML, sometimes more so.

15% of browsers? I don't believe it. This has definitely not been my experience. You must be counting scrapers/bots in this total. Security? The browser sandboxes everything.

But would always require a complete page reload. Not that most web apps wouldn't implement it that way to begin with anyway, but this would be the only choice with a HTML-only site.

But developers shouldn't have to implement extra functionality for the < 1% [citation needed] of people who browse without JS .

But that stuff is all important for the website owner. Advertising for paying the bills, analytics tracking to work out who is using their site, chat/comments boxes for social interaction.

This type of stuff is quite expensive. Envelope inserters of any decent quality start at about $40k and work their way up. And those small ones will do DLX only. The biggest issue with inserters though is volume. Unless you are running them

I'm curious. Is there any practical benefit to building one of these apart from proving that it can be done?

This is an Australian law requirement anyway for charging anyone for anything.

Australian doctors generally use a combination of this type of technique.
