yes. i don't mean to unfairly criticize the web as a platform, i just know it's warts because it's the platform i work on.
my criticism is reserved for the concept of "first principles", as if there should be a cohesive and simple set of rules that you can build up all the knowledge you need from. that's just not really how any complicated system works: building a comprehensive understanding of a complicated system takes a lot of work and a lot of time.
