Is it better for a website to roll its own insecurity? I'd a lot rather people use libraries with significant adoption — hopefully being aware of and avoiding any security problems they may include — than write their own version where the security problems will never be exposed, at least for good.

I'd rather devs stop using JavaScript in so many places where its not even needed. Pure html5 and CSS is where its at.

Isn’t that just security through obscurity?
