1. Not all apps need multi-thread capability, and handle offline scenarios, like pay utility bills, book tickets, order food etc
2. GUI is most easy part for web app to mock. WeChat mini-program has its own UI controls

you are correct, not all apps need multi-threading, but it sure is useful. Especially if you don't like callbacks. Blocking the UI to do a HTTP call with no network isn't not a good move.

Yes, but thats not my original point. Mocking a UI in a webapp easy to do, but very hard to do fast, smooth, offline capable, with all the features you want, and cross platform.
