I'm pointing out that HTML as it exists right now doesn't solve the big problems around this. I still think it could be extended to do so, but what's important here is that it hasn't been.

Is there any other kind?
Seriously wondering if there’s something specific you had in mind ...
My take is that it’s a harder solution space than can be solved gracefully with a single technology. It’s always easier to take a more convoluted approach. I think what confuses us is the visual nature of these apps; we think we should be able to describe them visually, and maybe you can, but it’s seldom worth the time and effort.
