You're incorrect

CSS and JavaScript and images are also static, it doesn't have to be just HTML

If you have a perl or bash or c backend generating html in response to http requests it's not static

You're assuming this is a backend. It is not. Do you consider generating an HTML file in a WYSIWYG editor like, say, "Dreamweaver" that outputs an .html no longer static because it was made by a program? That's absurd.

No, that's static, that's why I said "in response to an http request"
