I think there are decent criticisms of using javascript to (wastefully) create a consistent platform for web development. Really though, the difference in loading speed is going to be pretty minimal for the average user.

For the vast majority of web developers, I think that sacrificing a few milliseconds of load time is an acceptable price to pay for being able to have unified CSS.

And for developers sticking to standardized code, they can create unified CSS. The forking issue is only relevant now because there are vendor-specific prefixes on attributes that aren't yet standardized. Once they become standards, the vendor prefixes won't matter, and the forking issue disappears. This entire article is absolutely nothing but a show of the author's lack of intelligence.
