> inherent inefficiency of the virtual DOM
I was around when vDOM was being called optimized.
I was also around when they called it DHTML.
Get off my lawn!

To this day I wonder if this particularly strange choice of a serif font that is very clearly intended primarily for printed documents rather than on-screen legibility is why this entire notion of using user-selected fonts for web pages has largely withered. What if they went with, say, Verdana instead?
I even made my first website on that monitor (complete with animated gifs and <blink>, of course) - and seeing it finally on a color monitor was... interesting.
I was around for DHTML days, and as I recall, it was just a generic term for the ability to manipulate the actual (not virtual) DOM programmatically from JS.
