OMG this reminds me of a client (enterprise) I had who had been pushed into the role of product and he requested we build a website that "lets you bookmark every page"

>> lets you bookmark every page

In today's world with all the SPAs that don't push to history or don't manage to open the correct page based on history, this seems like a valid requirement

That's actually a very valid request, and easy to understand. They want static endpoints and heavy use of query parameters so you can bookmark individual page states.

It's up to you to work with them to identify key features and figure out precisely what to do.
