What is the point of this comment? If you want to create a tiny static web page for which the benefits of a service worker are nominal, then do it and stop worrying about it. That's not the purpose of service workers anyways.

The linked article claims that a PWA is appropriate for a blog or a marketing site, or any content basically. I strongly disagree.

The comment is intimating that many websites are over-engineered.

Consider it a suggestion to developers who are tempted to implement cool new tech on a site just to tickle their own itch.
