Well, you’re delegating the entire rendering to jQuery and hiding all of the manual work in a dependency. The lines of code are still there, you just didn’t write them yourself.

It’s not a fair comparison.

What? no you're not. You're augmenting existing, already rendered HTML with Jquery. have you never used Jquery before?
