I think that’s dependent on jurisdiction. This comes up with fonts where what you said applies in the US but in Europe, the actual visual result of the software also counts and is protected (afaik).

I don’t know any jurisdiction that gives copyright to the rendered output of html/css. There can be other IP (patents, pattern, trademark but doubt they apply for a normal saas ui)
Germany? The creative work is protected, and the design can be a creative work. How you implement it doesn’t really matter.
Which paragraph? I doubt it really covers the final outputted design (unless its specifically some art project) of general ui designs.
