if your collection of letters and images is unviewable without some modifiying logic, you're doing it wrong.

Agreed! But just as client-side scripting doesn't mean "un-archivable", it also doesn't mean "require JS to be able to read/view content".

If you're building SPAs, it usually does yeah.

But I'm not sure how you went from "a bit of client-side scripting" and "Lightweight scripting" to "letters and images is unviewable without some modifiying logic" here in this thread? Sounds like you just want people to hear how much distaste you have for the dependence on JS for showing content?
