I have not noticed that, but it really does not matter. If the
Websites that I find useful tend not to use JavaScript, then I do not
have to enable JavaScript very often. It does not matter to me if the
proportion of useful sites to non-useful sites is low. What matters
is the number of useful sites, and yes, I do find enough of them.
I have found that a Website requiring JavaScript for simple
functionality is a fairly good indication that the Website will not be
useful to me.
Sincerely,
Gene Wirchenko
