Sure - but when people try to explain that this propably needs
additional tools since HTML itself does not provide such a feature, it
is not helpful if you call them "moron".

Well - there is a chunked transfer encoding in HTTP. But this will
nevertheless still just deliver the same single HTML document which is
just one piece of content.

HTML itself does not have "logical textchunks". If you want to achieve
this - for example multiple sections for easier navigation - you may
either use anchors and a table of contents with links which is
positioned absolute at the top of the viewport or you use DIV elements
which are initially hidden except a title line and only display fully
when clicking the title. That can be done either using CSS and the
:focus selector combined with an element in the title which can get a
focus or using JavaScript.
