I remember when mapping sites worked that way: image in the middle. Want to move it to the right? Click the right arrow button and the page will reload with the map shifted a little.

Compared to Google Maps it was the Stone Age. I get it, a lot of sites use an unnecessary amount of JS and bog down the user. But there are very clear benefits to having JS in browsers.

SF Gate is a newspaper. It's not an interactive map.

Different tasks should use different methods.

Sure. OPs comment was not specific to SF Gate.
