No matter how many articles I read on the praise of bootcamps, none have been able to completely sway my opinion: I don't have to have a CS degree to be a good developer, but there are certain CS fundamentals lacking from bootcamps tha

Because its just noise to non-tech people. It's the same reason why email accounts have 2,000 unread inbox messages or 30 notifications at the top of their phone. You get so used to seeing the notification that you begin to ignore it.

Site design probably did not take mobile zoom into consideration, so it's to prevent reflow and layout issues. Granted, reflow issues are usually preferred over the inability to see/read something.

While I agree, those are all built-in functions. I suppose that's why there's the doc-on-highlight feature. I'd need to wrap them if I wanted just to rename them.
