the speaker is referring to them not needing to write javascript for a specific feature, which is true, but they do use scripting for some aspects of the application, which is perfectly acceptable in hypermedia-driven applications:

"Minimal", maybe, "small to no", nay :D
Considering the original phrase was 'minimal or no', I am glad that you now agree.

Now I understand, you're just obtuse.
This seems like an exceedingly mean-spirited and unconstructive type of response to have to people who have been giving up their time trying to explain a different point of view to you. I would also gently point out the HN guidelines at this point.
I note you haven't responded to my more substantive reply here,[0] so I am unsure you saw it. I would encourage you to read it with less of a zero-sum 'I-win-you-lose' mentality. I won't be engaging with you further though.
