The designer wants huge amounts of screen space wasted on unnnecessary padding, massive Fisher-Price rounded corners, and fancy fading and sliding animations that get in the way and slow things down. (Moreover, the designer just happens to want to completely re-design everything a few months later.)
The customer “ooh”s and “aah”s at said fancy animations running on the salesman’s top of the line macbook pro and is lured in, only realising too late that they’ve been bitten in the ass by the enormous amount of bloat that makes it run like a potato on any computer that costs less than four thousand dollars.
And US/EU laws are written by clueless bureaucrats whose most recent experience with technology is not even an electric typewriter.
What’s your point?
I think their point is that you might not have much of a choice, taking laws and modern aesthetic and economic concerns into consideration.
We "in the know" might agree, but we're not going to get it sold.
I think blind people should be able to use websites.
Wow, those are some jaded and cynical views.
