Text wrapping on? Unless you're talking about weird font and it's readability

I assume he means the font. I took a brief look and I'm not reading all that text in that font.

Yeah, it's the font that Atari games had at the time.

Or, and that seems more likely, they do not care about it, or even think that the page should not be at all readable on mobile devices.

It’s fine on iPhone and iPad, which are mobile.

It’s certainly not fine on iphone. The font renders but is very hard to read and the aspect ratio is awful.
