My impression of today's web, greater in css/js size, but with reduced creativity.

100% agreed. Most of the things look the same and we just ship more and more code.

> Accessible video/audio is pretty much not existing.

He should have read more completely because the almanac notes:

> … this figure may not account for video content loaded by a third party <iframe>, such as an embedded YouTube video. It should also be noted that most popular third-party audio and video embedding services include the ability to add synchronized text equivalents.

And that note is off mark as well. Most audio/video players load captions/subtitles out-of-band and do their own rendering or add them to the video element via JS for greater control.

> The "top scoring site" loaded over 60mb of CSS.

This is why my 100GB mobile data plan runs out in 3 days.

> 70% of font-size declarations are in pixels.

And all websites must be either scale up or down.
