I don't think it's fair to equate running JS that can change the rendered output with the archive server actually changing the HTML it sends back.

I agree, JS is much worse. Because anyone could create an "untrustworthy" page on archive.org, no hack or admin assistance is required.
Much worse indeed. This's why one should be deeply sceptical of the handful of WP users seeking to replace archive.today by archive.org. AT allows tampering by the archive operator; IA allows tampering by half the planet... including WP editors who'd love that replacement.
