That’s not a generally accepted as the definition of a static page.

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/Websit...

> You can use Amazon S3 to host a static website. On a static website, individual webpages include static content. They might also contain client-side scripts.

By contrast, a dynamic website relies on server-side processing, including server-side scripts, such as PHP, JSP, or ASP.NET. Amazon S3 does not support server-side scripting, but AWS has other resources for hosting dynamic websites. To learn more about website hosting on AWS, see Web Hosting.

Naturally Amazon doesn't care about client site code, as they are not in the browser business. But JavaScript is in fact typically called "dynamic" content. Insofar it is not static.
