I mean yeah technically the website can’t screenshot, but it can do many functionally equivalent things.
For example, it can capture the entire DOM and send it off, including the contents of input fields that have not been submitted.
That DOM capture can be replayed on a browser to show what the user sees. So what’s the difference?
Well, blocking javascript would stop that. Noscript is a thing that some people use.
Ublock origin also has that ability
For an increasing plurality (possibly even majority at this point) of sites where the purpose is not purely to read text, this is effectively equivalent to saying "you can just not use the site."
