It’s not so much that I thought this one instance was bad, as that I tried to extrapolate under the assumption that this was a common occurrence, in which case the extrapolation did not bode well. Naturally I still didn’t expect the situation to be as bad as the stuff you linked, yikes.
If you think that’s bad, just think about compensating for browser bugs which were reported 20 years ago…
