I have no idea what that section is trying to say? It isn't a feature but a requirement is the common argument. It isn't a primary feature but a result of following minimalist criteria is another..

The example that a long book of text downloads in a second seems to be saying the latter..



> It isn't a feature but a requirement is the common argument.

An argument that no one listens to, which is why the web isn't performant and is instead full of bloated junk. They are acting like performance isn't even a feature, like users don't care about it and shouldn't have it. This is wrong.

^-- Is what that section is saying.


It's saying that low TTI is an emergent property of this style.
