Google is neat, but what would have taken 30 minutes to run to the library and check out a book now takes 5 minutes to come up with a search query and browse the information super-highway. And then you have to make sure the information you got is accurate and not just written by some idiot. Neat, but not world-changing.

Actually you can just click NEXT multiple times in a row. Imagine you are on item 1 but really want to see item 5. You would have to click next, wait for transition to finish, click next, wait, etc.

(I found this because I already read the first 2-3 laws and closed the page, reopened to see the "Details" and wanted to quickly navigate to the middle/end of the list. Instantly the site felt super sluggish and unresponsive)

I totally agree with you BTW, clicking a button and having a quick (<200ms in my eyes) visual response is completely fine, even if that response is just a CSS transition. I do this all the time.

The specific problem I had is the NEXT button stops responding during that CSS transition which might not technically break rule #2 but definitely makes the UI feel sluggish and non responsive.

It absolutely does force you to wait though. If I click Learn More, then try pressing the PREV or NEXT buttons at the top, they do not respond to user input until the CSS animation is finished. I'm fairly certain this is exactly what rule #2 is talking about, trying to quickly go to the end or front of the list this way is extremely frustrating.

CSS transitions can be fine, but they shouldn't block user input or force the user to wait until they finish before moving on.

For this particular instance it might not matter a ton that they broke rule 2. But imagine if this was a table of paginated data, having to wait up to an extra second each time you go to the next or previous page just so the data could animate in would be rage inducing after a long period of time.
