I'm assuming this is intended as an insult, but I can see them seeing it as a compliment.

I think they're intending to rewind the clock and take a different path, and stick to some of the principles that they see as key to the early web's success.

It might not suit every single project, particularly if you start from the current paradigm but it seems like a good addition to the toolbox.

It definitely does not suit every single project (nothing does!).

This is nicely explained in: https://htmx.org/essays/when-to-use-hypermedia/
