I don't think that HTTP is a bad protocol - but it is intended to

transfer "documents" from server to client and back.

Thanks for speaking out with solid technical reasoning!

Http has been grossly abused and bent to fit a use case it wasn't exactly
fit for. And has been thrown upon with kludges upon kludges to make Web-UIs
feel more like real applications, in turn creating the need for
"frameworks" to help programmers master the mess because the resulting
stacked technology is utterly hard to comprehend.

Like you, I also dislike blind belief in web interfaces being superior in
general. No matter how often certain people assert this, it's a
generalization and there is never a silver bullet.

:wq! PoC
